All indications are the Bengals are poised to hire Zac Taylor as the franchise’s next head coach.
Taylor, who is currently the quarterbacks coach of the Rams, is believed to be one of the NFL’s young rising stars. Even though he’s got limited experience outside of position coaching gigs, there’s a belief that Taylor could be the first major hire from the Sean McVay coaching tree.
After all, McVay is already regarded as one of the best offensive minds in football. Sure, it’s going to be hard for Taylor or any coach to replicate what McVay is doing, but there’s reason to believe there’s a bright future ahead for Taylor.
