Report: Hue Jackson May Be 'In Line' for Bengals Head Coaching Job After Marvin Lewis

Former Browns head coach Hue Jackson could be "in line" to take over for Marvin Lewis in Cincinnati after the season, per CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora.

Jackson was on the Bengals' staff from 2012-15, serving as the team's offensive coordinator in 2014 and 2015. Jackson is a "favorite of Bengals owner Mike Brown" per La Canfora, and is a potential successor to Lewis should he "retire or transition to an upper-management position" after the season.

Jackson went 3–36 in three years with Cleveland, fired midway through the 2018 season. The Browns went 0–16 in 2017.
