Brian Callahan, who previously served as the offensive coordinator for the Cincinnati Bengals for five seasons, is reportedly generating significant interest from multiple NFL teams for offensive coordinator vacancies. He recently interviewed with the Buccaneers and Chargers for such roles.

Callahan's potential return to Cincinnati as an offensive coordinator is directly linked to the future of current Bengals offensive coordinator, Dan Pitcher. If Pitcher is hired as the head coach of the Cleveland Browns, it could clear the path for Callahan to rejoin the Bengals.

Callahan was the head coach of the Tennessee Titans for part of two seasons, compiling a 4-19 record before his dismissal in October 2025. Despite this, his previous success with the Bengals, including guiding Joe Burrow and leading the team to a Super Bowl appearance, has kept him in demand.
