Key Highlights

  • But he’s also on the market and keeping his options open. According to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, Callahan will have a second interview with those same Buccaneers on Thursday for their coordinator spot. So, two Bengals coaches, one opening.
  • For whoever doesn’t get the job (if not both), they’ll still be candidates for other spots around the NFL. AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementAll the Bengals can do is wait.
  • If Pitcher takes a job elsewhere, the Bengals could reel in Callahan for a reunion.
  • But Callahan could also take up one of the jobs, keeping Pitcher in Cincinnati. It’s more interesting from a Bengals perspective than anyone would have predicted, considering the team is running it back with the same staff.
  • Or at least trying to, anyway. RELATED: Bengals players who regressed the most in 2025This article originally appeared on Bengals Wire: Dan Pitcher, Brian Callahan and latest Bengals coaching buzz.
