For the past three weeks, most of the news surrounding the Cincinnati Bengals’ coaching staff has been more about who’s getting fired than who’s getting hired.
We know Zac Taylor is the Bengals’ preferred choice to become their next head coach, but there hasn’t been any word regarding who Taylor’s coordinators will be. There is now.
Per Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports, Taylor plans to hire a seasoned defensive coordinator to run his defense, and a fellow young and offensive mind is the favorite to become his offensive coordinator:
Sources said that Raiders quarterbacks coach Brian Callahan, son of legendary offensive line coach Bill Callahan, would be a top choice to serve as an offensive coordinator, while the defensive staff is likely to be considerably more experienced.
