Offensive coordinator Clarence Shelmon will not return to the Chargers next season, he said Tuesday. Shelmon, who spent 10 seasons with San Diego and 21 in the NFL, was the longest-tenured assistant coach along with current defensive coordinator John Pagano. The offensive coordinator from 2007-2011, Shelmon expects to pursue other things in the future and looks forward to traveling with his wife Nancy. The two plan to visit Istanbul this summer and take a three-week trip to South Africa in December. “I’m just done,” said Shelmon, who coached football for a combined 37 years. “You know when it’s time. It’s time for me to go and do some other things with my life.” Among the Chargers’ accomplishments with Shelmon as coordinator, the Bolts led the NFL in total offense, average yards per play and average yards per pass in 2010 and averaged at least 25 points a game for eight consecutive seasons, a first for any franchise in NFL history.
