Bengals news: Brian Callahan, Dan Pitcher sweepstakes heating up

For now, Cincinnati Bengals news mostly centers on the drama surrounding the next possible move for offensive coordinator Brian Callahan.

Callahan, suddenly the longest-tenured offensive coordinator in the NFL, is one of the hottest names on the market during this head coach hiring cycle. And the name of quarterbacks coach Dan Pitcher is starting to heat up, too.

That sets up a pretty interesting dynamic for a Bengals team that would like to keep at least one of those guys, with Pitcher likely promoted if Callahan leaves.

Here’s a look at the must-know Bengals news, notes and quotes for January 18.
