One Browns consultant a hot commodity in the NFL head coaching cycle

As the Cleveland Browns look to clean up their mess into the future, they will have to do it without Mike Vrabel.

Signed on as a consultant after being fired by the Tennessee Titans last offseason, Vrabel has spent the season with the Browns. However, he will not be with the team beyond this season. The Athletic’s Diana Russini has now reported that Vrabel is the hot commodity for teams seeking a head coach.

Here is what Russini had to say on the Browns’ staffer:

“I was told last hiring cycle that former Titans head coach Mike Vrabel absolutely nailed his interview with the Chargers. In fact, he was all set to get the job if Harbaugh decided to back out. Now, in this upcoming cycle, Vrabel is the guy every team with a coaching vacancy is lining up to talk to (though he legally can’t start meeting with teams since he’s considered a Browns employee).”

The Browns knew they were on borrowed time with Vrabel. He wants to be a head coach again and will not have to wait long. It just will not be in Cleveland.
