The Tennessee Titans have reportedly interviewed a second candidate for their defensive coordinator vacancy.
According to Bleacher Report’s Jordan Schultz, the Titans completed an interview with Cleveland Browns cornerbacks coach Brandon Lynch for their defensive coordinator job.
This is the second defensive coordinator interview the Titans have had, with the other being with Baltimore Ravens defensive backs coach Dennard Wilson, who was also scheduled to speak to Tennessee on Tuesday.
Lynch actually has a strong connection to Tennessee. Not only did he sign as an undrafted free agent with the Titans in 2004, he also played his college ball at Middle Tennessee State.
Lynch got his first NFL coaching gig in 2020 when the Browns hired him as an assistant defensive backs coach. He was later bumped up to cornerbacks coach in 2023.
In his first season at the helm of the cornerbacks room, Cleveland’s defense finished first in total yards and passing yards allowed.
