  • DAL Coaching Staff
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    After interviewing with the Cowboys Tuesday, Schottenheimer was brought in for a second interview, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. As the Cowboys’ offensive coordinator for the past two seasons, he has a lot of familiarity with Jerry Jones and company. ESPN’s Todd Archer reports Schottenheimer’s second set of conversations with the team ended Wednesday night. The 51-year-old is still in the mix and is the only head coaching candidate to make it to two interviews for Dallas so far. Jones has been working with familiarity in head coaching candidates with former Cowboys and current Eagles OC Kellen Moore also in the mix. The Cowboys have shown the most interest in Schottenheimer thus far.
  • BUF Offensive Coordinator
    Both Brady and Moore have given first interviews with the Saints and are coaching the Bills and Eagles offenses, respectively, in conference championship games on Sunday. The Saints are hoping to conduct second-round interviews with both candidates, adding them into a mix that includes Mike McCarthy, Anthony Weaver, and Mike Kafka. With a few of the top candidates out of the way, the Saints look to be content waiting and fleshing out their second-round options for head coach. As Joe Brady and Kellen Moore gameplan for a chance to head to the Super Bowl, a head coaching job in New Orleans is also on the horizon.
  • LAR Coaching Staff
    Ben Johnson has not wasted time trying to put together his staff for the Bears. His first interview request for defensive coordinator is the Rams’ Aubrey Pleasant, who was named assistant head coach prior to the 2024 season. He has bounced around coaching staffs in the NFL, spending 2017-2020 with the Rams and re-joining them in 2023. Pleasant was a key piece in helping Rams DC Chris Shula build a formidable unit and now could join the Bears as defensive coordinator, a position he has yet to hold in his coaching career.
  • PHI Wide Receiver #11
    Brown told reporters today he was feeling better. He has been taking Wednesdays off in recent weeks, so a limited designation, even for a walkthrough, does suggest he is trending in the right direction. Brown has totaled just 60 yards over his past three appearances, though the Eagles haven’t been forced to pass much during that stretch. If the Commanders can push Philly’s offense with some points of their own, Brown should return to form for DFS players on Sunday.
  • PHI Tight End #88
    Goedert didn’t appear limited by the ankle issue during Philly’s Divisional Round win, catching all four of his targets for 56 yards. The Eagles held a walkthrough on Wednesday, so Goedert’s status is just an estimation from the team. Thursday’s session will be more telling, but this is now a situation to monitor as we approach the Conference Championship Round. Grant Calcaterra would be in line for more snaps if Goedert can’t suit up, though we suspect this is just workload management ahead of a big game.
  • NE Defensive Coordinator
    Williams is a veteran of the coaching ranks, joining the Raiders in 2012 before stints with the Dolphins, Titans, and Lions. He held the the title of defensive line coach in all four spots and added assistant head coach to his resume under Mike Vrabel, now the Patriots’ boss, in Tennessee. Williams was also listed as the run game coordinator in Detroit. The Lions gave up the fifth-fewest rushing yards to opponents this season despite getting hit with a slew of injuries. Vrabel now has both of his coordinators set with Josh McDaniels reclaiming the title of offensive coordinator in New England.
  • FA General Manager
    The good news is that the Jags can now attract the top head coaching candidates of this hiring cycle. They’re all gone? Oh. Jags owner Shad Khan initially chose to retain Baalke and fire head coach Doug Pederson after another failed season. He later expressed some flexbility on retaining Baalke if it prevented the team from landing a new head coach. Despite Baalke being an obvious deterent for potential hires, Khan held strong and kept Baalke in town, only to watch both Lions coordinators take jobs elsewhere and Bucs OC Liam Coen turn down Jacksonville to stay in Tampa Bay. These decisions made the message to Khan undeniable. Baalke had to go. Now the Jags get to pair their next head coach annd general manager together, hopefully building some cohesion within the building. Baalke’s run in Jacksonville ends with a 25-43 record plus an iconic playoff win over the Chargers two years ago.
  • BUF Offensive Coordinator
    The Jags lost out on Ben Johnson while Liam Coen chose to stay in Tampa Bay. Robert Saleh is beleived to be next in line, but the Jags could open their search back up after losing out on the biggest names of the cycle. Brady already interviewed with the team once and has since put another playoff win under his belt. He also had intreviews with the Bears and Saints. New Orleans has yet to make a hire. With Trevor Lawrence’s career at a bit of a crossroads, getting an offensive mind at the helm should be a priority for the organization. Instead, keeping GM Trent Baalke has seemingly been the goal of the offseason for owner Shad Khan, and it’s already cost him dearly.
  • NYJ Head Coach
    The connection of Glenn to the Jets has been made for months and came into focus earlier this week when the team brought him into New York for an interview with the plan of hiring him on the spot. Glenn’s ties to the franchise run deep. The Jets drafted Glenn, a former cornerback, in the first round 30 years ago and he even spent time in the organization as a scout after his playing days were over. Glenn served as a DBs coach in New Orleans and followed Dan Campbell to Detroit in 2021, accepting the position of defensive coordinator. In 2024, Glenn led the Lions to top-10 ranks in EPA per play and total points allowed despite the team being bombarded by injuries on the defensive side of the ball. He now joins a Jets team with plenty of talent on defense including Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams. The offensive side of the ball is the bigger issue, meaning Glenn’s choice of offensive coordinator will be crucial.
  • LV General Manager
    As Rapoport points out, Spytek was in the Bucs’ front office when they brought it Tom Brady and won a Super Bowl. Brady is now a part-owner of the Raiders and is heavily involved in their search for a new head coach and general manager. Spytek also had interviews with the Titans this offseason. His first order of business will be landing the aforementioned head coach. Ben Johnson was the team’s top target but took the Bears’ gig instead. With fellow Buccaneer Liam Coen deciding to stay in Tampa Bay and Lions DC Aaron Glenn likely headed for New York, the coaching pool is thinning out rather quickly, leaving the Raiders scrambling once again.
