Brian Flores Interviews With Browns

CLEVELAND — Brian Flores landed in the AFC North last season. He might be ready to make a move inside the division. Flores, who joined coach Mike Tomlin’s staff in Pittsburgh following his messy departure in Miami, is interviewing with the Cleveland Browns on Thursday to be their new defensive coordinator. Flores is the second candidate to meet with the Browns this week. On Wednesday, they interviewed former Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz, who spent the past two seasons as a defensive senior adviser with Tennessee. Flores is on the radar of several other teams, and it’s possible he could be looking to get another shot as a head coach. The 41-year-old went 24-25 in three seasons with the Dolphins before being fired. The Browns missed the playoffs for the second straight year after going 7-10, and their defense was a major reason for the down season.
