Titans to hire Bengals OC Brian Callahan as head coach

The Tennessee Titans have themselves a new head coach. Tennessee has decided on Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan as the new head coach, succeeding Mike Vrabel.

The Titans opening was one that Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn interviewed for over the weekend, and Glenn was considered by some as one of the favorites to land the position. Cross that one off the list.

There are still five head coaching vacancies after Callahan’s hiring, and also the Raiders option to keep interim head coach Antonio Pierce for their gig. Both Glenn and Lions OC Ben Johnson have interviewed for the openings with the Chargers and Commanders.

Callahan, 39, had been the Bengals offensive coordinator for the last three seasons. He’s known for his work with QB Joe Burrow and also the surprising development of Burrow’s backup, Jake Browning. He is the son of longtime NFL offensive line coach Bill Callahan, who currently serves in that role for the Browns.
