US EditionChargers' Jesse Minter, Rams' Nate Scheelhaase Interview for Browns Head Coach
The Browns evaluate top young coordinators virtually this week, seeking a new head coach after a 5-12 season with eight candidates interviewed so far.
- On Friday, Los Angeles Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter and Rams passing game coordinator Nate Scheelhaase interviewed with the Cleveland Browns virtually due to NFL rules restricting in-person talks until Monday after the divisional round.
- After firing Kevin Stefanski on Jan. 5, the Browns opened a broad head-coach search and have interviewed eight candidates so far, mixing internal coordinators like Tommy Rees with external names including Mike McDaniel.
- Minter brings a 3-4, zone-heavy scheme and a track record from Michigan and Baltimore, and Scheelhaase, in his second Rams season, helped a passing attack rank 10th in yards per game.
- Hiring Minter could force schematic changes and affect Jim Schwartz's future, while the Browns continue interviews with Grant Udinski Saturday and may request Chris Shula.
- Both candidates enter the cycle with heavy leaguewide interest, as Jesse Minter received requests for all nine vacancies and Nate Scheelhaase draws early interviews despite never calling NFL plays, with the Pittsburgh Steelers showing such risks can pay off.
