The Tennessee Titans have reportedly put in their first request to interview a candidate for their head coaching vacancy.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Titans have put in a request to speak with Detroit Lions defensive coordinator, Aaron Glenn.
This is the second coach who the Titans reportedly have interest in to replace former head coach Mike Vrabel.
Earlier in the day, Justin Melo of The Draft Network reported that the Titans are expected to interview Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator, Brian Callahan, although he did not say the team had requested an interview yet.
After a 15-year career in the NFL, Glenn has worked as a scout (New York Jets), assistant defensive backs coach (Cleveland Browns), defensive backs coach (New Orleans Saints) and defensive coordinator (Lions).
He’s been the DC in Detroit since 2021 but the defense has never finished better than 23rd in points allowed per game, which is where the unit was ranked this season.
However, as owner Amy Adams Strunk said, it’s vital that candidates show her a staff that can bring a fresh perspective to the team, so any candidate who can accomplish that will have a shot, even if they aren’t offensive-minded.
