Browns OC candidate Jerrod Johnson gets second interview with Saints

The Cleveland Browns are feeling the heat from the New Orleans Saints over the potential offensive coordinator services of Jerrod Johnson.

Johnson, the current quarterbacks coach of the Houston Texans, has been a hot commodity from teams looking for a new offensive coordinator. The Browns are far from the only team to interview him, but now he has a second interview in New Orleans as their interest is heating up.

Getting a ton of praise for the development of rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud, Johnson has now worked for the likes of Kevin O’Connell, Bobby Slowik, Kyle Shanahan, and Frank Reich throughout his young career as he rises through the ranks.

With Kellen Moore already off the board, agreeing to become the new offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles, the Browns may want to wrap up their search fast.

Could Johnson be the next man up in Cleveland as they look to continue to get the most out of Deshaun Watson?
