New Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator Kellen Moore doesn't need an introduction to quarterback Justin Herbert.
Moore has been a spokesperson for a car dealership in Meridian, Idaho, since 2012. Herbert began a small role with the same dealership in 2020 and filmed some commercials last offseason with Moore serving as coach, and Herbert and Dallas Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch cast as trainees or "rookies."
The association packs extra meaning now with Moore taking over the reins of the Chargers' offense and Herbert on the doorstep of stardom after passing for 14,089 yards and 94 touchdowns in his first three NFL seasons.
