Ohio State co-offensive coordinator Ryan Day is reportedly new Titans head coach Mike Vrabel?s top choice to become Tennessee?s next OC, but Vrabel also has interest in Lions quarterbacks coach Brian Callahan. Callahan has drawn coordinator interest around the league before, and could also be on the Jets? radar as they seek to fill their OC vacancy. However, Detroit and new head coach Matt Patricia want to keep Callahan in place with the Lions.

Matt Patricia is not certain to hire a defensive coordinator with the Lions. Patricia will run the Lions? defense regardless. This was the job he was connected to throughout the offseason, and despite reports emerging the Giants had him among their finalists, that wasn?t the case. McDaniels and Pat Shurmur are believed to be the only HC candidates the Giants were considering.

Can't wait for a coach who knows how to make adjustments. The adjustments he made on defense during the second half helped the Patriots get to the Super Bowl once again.
