The Chargers on Sunday confirmed they have interviewed Ian Cunningham for their general manager position.
Cunningham, 38, finished his second season as the assistant general manager with the Bears.

Cunningham started his time in the NFL ranks with the Ravens for nine seasons, starting from player personnel assistant to area scout.
Cunningham has a football-playing background as he was an offensive lineman at the University of Virginia from 2003-07, starting 31 career games. He signed with the Chiefs as a rookie free agent in 2008.
