More news: Browns Head Coach Finalist Could Save Shedeur Sanders’ Career
NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero broke the news on how the Browns are conducting their interviews, which comes a day following the report that Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula turned down Cleveland for an opportunity to interview with them.
He isn't the only hot name on the market that has allegedly turned down the Browns, with former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel also not interested in the extensive process the Browns are rolling out to find their next strategic leader.
While other teams are casting a wide net for who they want to bring in, owner Jimmy Haslam appears to want a specific type of person to take charge of the Browns following another disappointing season.
Among their finalists are two of the fastest-rising stars in the league: the Jacksonville Jaguars' offensive coordinator, Grant Udinski, and the Los Angeles Rams' pass game coordinator, Nathan Scheelhaase. Both of whom have taken at least one test in college in the past decade, unlike some of the other candidates who quit the process before making it to the in-person interview round.
The Browns have been in limbo since the departure of quarterback Baker Mayfield, which eventually led to the recent firing of two-time Coach of the Year Kevin Stefanski. While Stefanski already found a new head coaching position with the Atlanta Falcons, the Browns, through their series of tests, quizzes, and homework, are still combing through applicants for theirs.
