The Tennessee Titans appear to have an early finalist for their head coaching vacancy.
According to ESPN’s Dan Graziano, the Titans have contacted Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan for a second interview for their head coaching vacancy.
Graziano adds that the interview will be in-person after the team spoke with Callahan virtually last week. This is the first known second interview the Titans will hold with a candidate.
As far as when the interview will take place, an exact date is unknown, but we do know that in-person interviews cannot take place until next week.
The Titans have completed interviews with four candidates thus far, with a fifth on the way when the team brings in Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn on Wednesday.
The four candidates who have completed an interview are Callahan, Las Vegas Raiders interim head coach Antonio Pierce, New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka and Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald.
Aside from those four and Quinn, the Titans have also requested interviews with five others, a list that includes Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Thomas Brown, Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Brian Johnson, Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn.
Earlier in the day, Graziano predicted the Titans will hire Glenn after hearing he is a “strong candidate” for the job.
