The Detroit Lions are still looking to fill the coaching staff for new head coach Jim Caldwell and a new candidate for the offensive coordinator vacancy has been added to the list of potential suitors.

According to the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Kansas City Chiefs wide receivers coach David Culley is a candidate for the opening.

Target for #Lions OC on Jim Caldwell’s staff: #Chiefs asst head coach/WRs David Culley (http://t.co/PseMk5vTO9…). Or, Ron Prince as OC

Culley is also the assistant head coach for the Chiefs and previously worked under Andy Reid coaching the Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver. While Culley may entertain the offer, it is hard to imagine that he would part ways with Reid after the success the team had this season.

Rutgers Scarlet Knights offensive coordinator Ron Prince is also a candidate for the job and he could get the job if Culley decides to pass on the offer.
