2026 NFL Head Coaching Search Tracker

By | at January 7, 2026 9:50 pm

The Browns, Cardinals, Falcons and Raiders followed the Giants and Titans in firing head coaches, making those calls between the Week 18 conclusion and Black Monday. The Ravens then moved on from John Harbaugh after 18 seasons; two days later, the Dolphins canned Mike McDaniel. Following a wild-card loss, the Steelers and Mike Tomlin are separating after 19 years. Now, after an overtime divisional-round loss in Denver, Sean McDermott is out in Buffalo.

The 10 HC openings are tied with 1978, 1997, 2006 and 2022 for the most in one year. Here are the candidates connected to all those searches, including the two remaining jobs. If more teams make changes, they will be added to the list.

Cardinals Request HC Interview With Patriots’ Thomas Brown

By | at January 6, 2026 7:09 pm

Add Patriots passing game coordinator/tight ends coach Thomas Brown to the Cardinals’ list of head coaching candidates. The Cardinals have requested an interview with Brown, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.

A running back with Atlanta and Cleveland from 2008-10, Brown climbed up the college coaching ranks before joining the Rams’ staff in 2020. He worked under Sean McVay as a running backs coach, assistant head coach and tight ends coach through 2022.

Brown impressed enough on McVay’s staff to land the Panthers’ offensive coordinator job in 2023, but it ended up as a one-and-done stint. The Panthers finished 2-15 during a season in which they fired head coach Frank Reich in late November. With Brown as their on-again, off-again play caller and rookie Bryce Young at quarterback, the Panthers ranked last in total offense and 31st in scoring.

With the Panthers moving on to a Dave Canales-led coaching staff in 2024, Brown spent the season with the Bears. He began the year as the Bears’ passing game coordinator before replacing the fired Shane Waldron as their offensive coordinator in mid-November. That was the first of two in-season promotions for Brown, who finished the year as Chicago’s interim head coach after the firing of Matt Eberflus. The Bears went 1-4 under Brown, and their offense scored the fewest points in the league in quarterback Caleb Williams‘ rookie campaign.

Brown interviewed to become Chicago’s full-time head coach last January, but the role wound up going to Ben Johnson. That decision has worked out beautifully for the NFC North-winning Bears, while Brown has upped his stock as a Mike Vrabel assistant in New England.

Thanks largely to their passing attack, the Patriots pulled off a stunning 10-win improvement from 2024 to 2025. The 14-3 Pats won the AFC East and will enter the postseason as the second seed in the conference. With Brown’s help, second-year quarterback Drake Maye has quickly turned into an MVP front-runner. Maye finished the season first in completion percentage, yards per attempt, traditional passer rating and QBR. He also ranked third in touchdown passes and fourth in yards.

Unlike the Patriots, the Cardinals don’t have an obvious answer at quarterback. They’re expected to trade or release Kyler Murray in the offseason. Veteran Jacoby Brissett is under contract for another year, but he isn’t a long-term solution. It’s an area Cardinals general manager Monti Ossenfort and their next head coach, whether it’s Brown or another candidate, will likely address in the coming months.

Coaching Notes: Chiefs, Lions, Udinski, Leonhard, Idzik, Brown, Bears, Pitcher, Scheelhaase, Godsey

By | at January 3, 2026 10:36 pm

Matt Nagy looms as one of the top head coaching candidates with an offensive background in this year’s hiring cycle. A departure for a second HC opportunity (or at least a play-calling offensive coordinator role) is something to watch for over the coming days.

In the event Nagy were to head elsewhere, the Chiefs would find themselves in need of an OC replacement. The team could look to familiar options in such a scenario. Kansas City would “welcome back” Mike Kafka or Eric Bieniemy, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.

Bieniemy, 56, worked under Andy Reid from 2013-22. That span included five years in the offensive coordinator role. Bieniemy led Washington’s offense for one season before doing the same at UCLA. He is currently serving as the Bears‘ running backs coach. Kafka, meanwhile, was with the Chiefs for five years, operating as quarterbacks coach and pass-game coordinator along the way. As the interim head coach of the Giants, the 38-year-old’s future is currently unclear.

With Black Monday approaching, here are some other coaching notes from around the NFL:

  • Lions head coach Dan Campbell recently hinted at staffing changes. It would comes as little surprise if OC John Morton were to be among those let go, seeing as he was stripped of play-calling duties midway through the campaign. Morton said (via Rapoport and Pelissero) “I’d like to be here” when asked about the possibility of remaining in Detroit. Taking on a lesser role for next season could thus be something to watch for as Campbell looks into his coordinator options.
  • Overall, the pool of head coaching candidates for 2026 is not seen as being as strong as last year. A large number of firings over the next few days may not be forthcoming as a result. On the other hand, The Athletic’s Dianna Russini notes (subscription required) this winter could be busier than usual in terms of coordinator changes. Jaguars OC Grant Udinski, Broncos secondary coach Jim Leonhard, Panthers offensive coordinator Brad Idzik and Patriots pass-game coordinator Thomas Brown are among the staffers she identifies among those who have drawn strong reviews for their work this season.
  • Ben Johnson has impressed during his debut season in Chicago. He could be in line to lose a number of key assistants soon, however. Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports names Bieniemy as a candidate to depart this winter with his stock having received a boost. In addition, offensive coordinator Declan Doyle, pass-game coordinator Press Taylor and quarterbacks coach J.T. Barrett have each generated buzz regarding interest around the league. Johnson may have multiple vacancies to fill in the near future in the wake of Chicago’s successful campaign.
  • Dan Pitcher has been with the Bengals since 2016. Over that time, he has worked his way up to quarterbacks coach, a role he has had for six seasons and counting. The 38-year-old finds himself as an interview candidate for OC positions, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. Losing Pitcher would deal another blow to the stability Zac Taylor enjoyed on his offensive staff until Brian Callahan‘s departure in 2025.
  • Fowler also points to Nate Scheelhaase as a “sleeper” with respect to offensive coordinator interviews. Scheelhaase, 35, served in many positions at the college level before joining the Rams in 2024; he currently serves as the team’s pass-game coordinator. Many Sean McVay assistants have gone on to land notable gigs elsewhere in the NFL, and along with D-coordinator Chris Shula Scheelhaase could soon become the latest to do so.
  • Since 2022, George Godsey has served as the Ravens’ tight ends coach. That tenure is nearing an end, however, Godsey is finalizing a deal to become the next offensive coordinator at Georgia Tech, ESPN’s Pete Thamel reports. By returning to his alma mater, Godsey will end a run of NFL coaching positions which dates back to 2011.

Patriots Announce 2025 Coaching Staff

By | at February 5, 2025 9:56 pm

Along with the hiring of new Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel came the addition of two new coordinators, as well, in offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and defensive coordinator Terrell Williams. Each coordinator went about building their new staffs, with lots of new names arriving in New England over the past few weeks. ESPN’s Mike Reiss reported the final lineup today.

On offense, we had already heard about the hirings of quarterbacks coach Ashton Grant, wide receivers coach Todd Downing, and offensive assistant Riley Larkin. We had also been informed that Thomas Brown, Doug Marrone, and Jason Houghtaling had been hired, but we weren’t yet made aware of their positions. Reiss’ report tells us that Brown will serve as tight ends coach and passing game coordinator, Marrone will be offensive line coach, and Houghtaling will be assistant offensive line coach under Marrone.

New information tells us that, joining Houghtaling as an assistant offensive line coach under Marrone, Robert Kugler has been retained from last year’s staff. Kugler held the same position with the Texans and Panthers before joining the Patriots as an assistant offensive line coach last year. We also learned that Tony Dews has been hired as running backs coach. Dews served the same position under Vrabel during his tenure in Tennessee (including one year as tight ends coach) before spending last year as running backs coach for the Jets. Lastly on offense, Chuckie Keeton‘s coaching journey continues in New England after he debuted for the Seahawks as an offensive assistant last year.

On defense, we had already heard of the hirings of Zak Kuhr, Scott Booker, and Clint McMillan, as well as the retention of Ben McAdoo, but thanks to Reiss, we now know that Kuhr will serve as inside linebackers coach, Booker as safeties coach, and McMillan as defensive line coach. McAdoo served last year as a senior offensive assistant for the team, and in 2025, he will switch sides of the ball as a senior defensive assistant. Reiss also informed us that defensive assistant Vinny DePalma was retained in the same role. Last year was his first year in the NFL — or coaching period — after finishing his collegiate playing career as a linebacker at Boston College.

Reiss also reported four defensive hirings. We had heard that the Patriots were targeting Colts assistant defensive backs coach Justin Hamilton, and Reiss has him listed as the team’s new safeties coach. Hamilton held a defensive quality control coaching role on the Titans during Vrabel’s last year in Tennessee before landing his role in Indianapolis last year. The Patriots have also hired Mike Smith as outside linebackers coach. Smith has held the same role previously with the Chiefs, Packers, and Vikings but spent last year away from coaching. Lastly, the Patriots announced the hirings of Milton Patterson and Kevin Richardson as defensive assistants. Patterson makes his NFL coaching debut after five seasons as defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at Florida A&M. Richardson is likewise debuting as a coach in the NFL following two seasons as assistant defensive backs coach at Illinois.

Finally, on special teams, we learned that Tom Quinn has been retained as assistant special teams coach. We knew that special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer had been retained, and while we don’t know his exact fate, Coby Tippett, a special teams assistant coach last year, was not included in today’s staff announcements. We also learned that Deron Mayo was retained as strength and conditioning coach despite his brother’s dismissal as head coach.

There you have it: the Patriots 2025 coaching staff. There are lots of areas that need improvement in order for the Patriots to see success next season, but it all starts with the coaching staff. Vrabel returns with head coaching experience under his belt, and he will try to bring some of the success he had as head coach at Tennessee with him to New England.

Patriots To Hire Thomas Brown, Doug Marrone

By | at January 27, 2025 9:42 am

Mike Vrabel continues to build his Patriots staff, and a pair of interesting names have emerged on Monday as that process continues. Thomas Brown is the latest coach to head to New England.

Brown is being brought in, Mark Daniels of MassLive reports. He held three different titles during his time with the Bears this past season, including of course interim offensive coordinator and later interim head coach. It was already known he would not return to Chicago, but he has not needed to wait long to find his next opportunity.

Daniels’ report did not specify what Brown’s role will be in New England, but Tom Pelissero of NFL Network clarifies he will work as the Patriots’ tight ends coach and passing game coordinator. That is roughly in line with where Brown stood with the Bears at the start of the 2024 campaign, one in which Shane Waldron was fired midseason. Brown took over as Chicago’s play-caller, eventually earning another promotion when head coach Matt Eberflus was dismissed.

That left the 38-year-old in an interesting position at the onset of the hiring cycle. Brown interviewed with the Bears for the full-time HC gig, but as expected the team made a strong (and successful) push to hire Ben Johnson away from the Lions. Considering Brown met with the Patriots for their offensive coordinator position, though, this news comes as little surprise.

Vrabel and the Patriots reunited with Josh McDaniels to serve (once again) as offensive coordinator for 2025. Brown will have a role on the new-look staff, working closely with a tight ends room led by Hunter Henry. The veteran set a new career high in catches and yards in 2024, and he will be counted on to remain a key contributor on offense moving forward. It will be interesting to see how Brown fares in rebuilding his stock over the course of his Patriots tenure.

Prior to the news of Brown’s hire on Monday, it was learned Doug Marrone will be joining the Patriots’ staff as well. ESPN’s Mike Reiss notes Marrone’s title is uncertain at this point, but his experience working on the offensive line suggests he could be heavily involved with a unit in need of significantly improved play moving forward. Marrone’s NFL coaching career has included seven years as a head coach (five in Jacksonville, two in Buffalo) as well as an offensive coordinator stint in New Orleans. McDaniels will certainly have a veteran presence on his latest Patriots staff.

Marrone spent the 2024 campaign at Boston College working as a senior analyst for football strategy, so a role along those lines could also be in play. In any event, his addition – along with that of Brown – adds to the number of notable staffers in place under Vrabel for 2025.

Coaching Rumors: Bears, Washington, Packers, 49ers, Allen, Giants, Pats, Bengals

By | at January 23, 2025 12:58 pm

Although the Panthers and Colts are recent examples of an incoming coaching staff keeping a coordinator in place, the Bears‘ 2024 coordinators will not stick around like Ejiro Evero and Gus Bradley did elsewhere. Neither Thomas Brown nor DC Eric Washington will be retained under Ben Johnson, The Athletic’s Adam Jahns notes. O-line coach Chris Morgan, quarterbacks coach Kerry Joseph and interim OC Chris Beatty are also out in Chicago. This is not especially surprising, as new staffs regularly want to bring in their own hires.

Brown, 38, will be on his way to a fourth team in four years. The former Sean McVay assistant spent the 2023 season alongside Evero, as Carolina’s OC, and moved from pass-game coordinator to interim OC to interim HC in Chicago last year. The Bears went 1-4 under Brown, who has received OC interest elsewhere. Washington came over from the Bills in 2024, when Matt Eberflus replaced Alan Williams after calling the signals himself for most of the 2023 season. Washington, 55, only took over play-calling duties in 2024 when the Bears fired Eberflus.

Here is the latest from the coaching carousel:

  • Teams making HC hires will expand the OC and DC carousels, and the Bears’ entrance on the coordinator market revealed interest in Dennis Allen. The rumored favorite to follow Johnson to Chicago, Allen may also have heard from the 49ers, as ESPN.com’s Nick Wagoner indicates the NFC West team showed some interest in the ex-Bengals DC. Allen, though, may have been a Robert Saleh contingency plan. Although Allen has been closely linked to the Bears, Saleh is still in the mix for the Jaguars — with a second interview scheduled — and Raiders. The Cowboys also met with the former Jets HC, who would seem likely to rejoin the 49ers if his HC paths close.
  • Speaking of Washington, CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones adds the Packers interviewed him for their defensive line coach role. Prior to his one-season Bears stay, Washington was the Bills’ D-line coach for the previous four years. He was Carolina’s DC from 2018-19. With a few DC gigs yet to open, it will be interesting to see if Washington would return to the position coach level early rather than wait on a potential lateral move. Green Bay is also interviewing Tampa Bay D-line coach Kacy Rodgers for the role, per NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport, who adds Rodgers’ Buccaneers contract is up.
  • Former defensive coordinator Marquand Manuel will change facilities, but he will (presumably) not need to relocate. The four-year Jets safeties coach is joining the Giants as their DBs coach, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler tweets. A former NFL safety who ascended to the role of Falcons DC in the late 2010s, Manuel has been an NFL staffer since 2012. The Giants went 3-14 but did not fire their head coach or their coordinators, but Shane Bowen — after retaining some holdover staffers last year — is bringing in his own guy to replace Jerome Henderson, who spent five years in the role.
  • The Patriots already have a “new” OC-DC tandem, with Josh McDaniels’ third stint in the play-calling role accompanying Terrell Williams‘ arrival as the team’s defensive boss. But Mike Vrabel is retaining special teams coordinator Jeremy Springer, NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport notes. Springer was not a Bill Belichick hire, but rather a Jerod Mayo addition; he came over from the Rams last year. Pro Football Focus graded the Pats’ ST units second overall in 2024.
  • Vrabel did not retain Mayo’s O-line coaches, and both have found new gigs. The Bengals are hiring Scott Peters as offensive line coach, with Bengals.com’s Geoff Hobson adding ex-Pats assistant O-line coach Michael McCarthy to the same role in Cincinnati. Peters spent four seasons under Bill Callahan as Browns assistant O-line coach and, per Hobson, had spent previous time serving as a UFC trainer for Brock Lesnar and Cain Velasquez. Zac Taylor played under Callahan at Nebraska, creating a natural tie here. The Bengals fired Frank Pollack from the O-line coaching role at season’s end.

Patriots Interview Thomas Brown For OC Job

By | at January 17, 2025 5:44 pm

Technically still in the running for the Bears’ head coaching job, Thomas Brown has begun to explore his options. After meeting with the Seahawks about their position, the interim Chicago HC is on the Patriots’ radar.

As Mike Vrabel looks to replace Alex Van Pelt on his first New England staff, he met with Brown about the OC job, NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport tweets. The meeting occurred Tuesday, before it became known the Seahawks had others in mind — Klint Kubiak, Grant Udinski — for second interviews about their OC vacancy.

[RELATED: Offensive/Defensive Coordinator Search Tracker]

Vrabel joined Brown in meeting about the Bears’ HC job, and the two one-time Chicago candidates spent time discussing recent Bears offensive work. It looks like Brown will be set to join a fourth team in four years. While the Patriots are set to conduct a wide-ranging search (per Vrabel, at least) that will include Josh McDaniels, Brown looks likely to leave Chicago.

Brown spent the 2022 season with the Rams, was both a play-calling and non-play-calling OC with the Panthers in 2023 and held three Bears positions last year. Initially hiring Shane Waldron as their OC, the Bears circled back to Brown as pass-game coordinator. Brown took the Chicago play-calling reins after the team fired Waldron months into his tenure and then replaced Matt Eberflus soon after. While Brown’s HC tenure did not go very well, team brass realized the tough spot he was in and still considered him for the HC role. Given how disappointing the Bears’ 2024 season was and the importance of maximizing Caleb Williams, it should be expected Brown will not be retained.

The Bears dropped from 4-2 to 4-12 this season, though Brown did nab his only win as interim HC via a game-winning field goal over the Packers in Week 18. The presences of Williams and a well-regarded skill-position group did not boost the Bears this season; the team ranked last in total offense and 28th in points scored. This stands to make a move to another play-calling post — which the Patriots’ job will be — potentially difficult for the former Sean McVay assistant.

Brown is the first confirmed interview for this position, even though a third McDaniels stint has been on the New England radar for a bit. Van Pelt confirmed he was fired along with Jerod Mayo after the Pats’ Week 18 win. If someone other than McDaniels lands the New England job, it will be the franchise’s fifth OC in five years.

Bears Conduct HC Interview With Thomas Brown

By | at January 13, 2025 9:26 am

The Bears have been connected to a wide range of outside head coaching candidates at both the NFL and college levels in the early phase of their search. A meeting with interim HC Thomas Brown has also been expected, though, and that will prove to be the case.

Brown will interview with Chicago for the full-time gig today, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. The team has since announced the completion of the meeting. After taking over for Matt Eberflus, the possibility remained he would have the opportunity to continue leading the team for 2025. Considering Brown went from pass game coordinator to offensive coordinator to head coach in a matter of weeks, however, it would come as a surprise if the team elected to hand him the reins on a permanent basis.

Chicago’s search committee – led by general manager Ryan Poles and president Kevin Warren – has been a talking point throughout the process of seeking out Eberflus’ replacement. Poles is taking point, but questions have been raised about Warren’s influence in the organization’s power structure once a hire is made. The Bears’ next coach will report to Poles, who will in turn report to Warren. It will be interesting to see how Thomas’ interview goes today given the chance he takes a position with another team.

The 38-year-old has a meeting lined up with the Seahawks for their offensive coordinator vacancy. Seattle moved on from Ryan Grubb after the campaign, and as a result the team joins Cleveland and Chicago (having dismissed Shane Waldron in-season) in needing a new OC for 2025. Depending on how the coaching landscape takes shape – other teams could very well make coordinator changes tied to their head coaching hires – Brown could remain a name to watch closely.

Via PFR’s HC search tracker, here is an updated look at the Bears’ ongoing process:
