Former Husker quarterback Zac Taylor has seen his star rise quickly in the coaching ranks. Today, known as Black Monday for underperforming NFL coaching staffs, he is entering rare air. At least two teams have requested permission to interview Taylor for their head coaching job.
Taylor is young, only 35 years old but has caught the eye of NFL general managers desperate to keep up in an NFL that has seen the scales tip significantly in favor of offense.
Also looking for head coaches at this time are the Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Miami Dolphins, Cincinnati Bengals, New York Jets, and Cleveland Browns.
