Steelers & NFL News: Flores, Updates – Monday Roundup

Brian Flores meets the Steelers

Pittsburgh announces that Brian Flores will visit their premises for a second interview.

The Steelers already know Flores since he was a linebackers coach and defensive assistant in 2022 before taking the position of defensive coordinator for the Vikings where he has shined since.

The Steelers have other interviews planned including Mike McCarthy. Chris Shula (DC, Rams), Nate Scheelhaase (passing game coordinator, Rams) and Jeff Hafley (DC, Packers). But Brian Flores is the first to receive a request for a second interview…

The Steelers with Aaron Rodgers in 2026?

With Brian Flores or another, one of the first questions for the Steelers and the new coach will be who will be at the center of the attack.

And according to ESPN, that could be Aaron Rodgers. In any case the Steelers are more than open to this idea according to the American media. An idea shared by management but also the players obviously.

Now the question remains what Aaron Rodgers says about it.

Dolphins favorite Jeff Hafley?

The Dolphins are launching their second round of interviews for their head coach position. But according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Miami has a favorite. It would be Jeff Hafley, the current coordinator of the Packers.

If he is truly the Dolphins’ preferred candidate, they will have to be convincing because Hafley also has second interviews with the Titans, Raiders and Cardinals.

Miami is still multiplying the avenues with in particular the arrival of Kelvin Sheppard (DC, Lions),

The Titans have their finalists

According to ESPN and Adam Schefter, the Titans have reduced their list of candidates for the head coach position to 3 names: Robert Saleh (DC, 49ers), Matt Nagy (OC, Chiefs) and Jeff Hafley (DC, Packers).
The three candidates will have a second interview this week. Robert Saleh could therefore find a position as head coach, one year after his failed stint with the Jets. For Matt Nagy, his failed experience with the Bears dates back to 2021. As for Hafley, it would be his first head coach position.

Seahawks: optimism around Zach Charbonnet

This weekend, Zach Charbonnet (RB) was unable to finish the game against the 49ers due to a knee injury. If some additional examinations are still to be done, optimism is in order among the Seahawks.

Mike Macdonald (HC) confirmed this at a press conference.

“We are optimistic with Charbs. The first indications suggest that there is nothing serious. He was able to get back on the sidelines. »

With 730 yards gained and 12 touchdowns scored on the ground this season, Charbonnet is an important piece of Seattle’s attack.

The Browns continue with their second round

Cleveland begins its second round of interviews for the head coach position with several candidates around the league having secured a second interview with the Browns. Among these, we note: Todd Monken (OC, Ravens), Jim Schwartz (current DC of the Browns), Grant Udinski (OC, Jaguars), Mike McDaniel (ex HC, Dolphins), Jesse Minter (DC, Chargers) and Nate Scheelhaase (passing game coordinator, Rams)

According to insiders, it is Jim Schwartz who would be favored by the Browns.

Ravens: Joe Brady and Robert Saleh received

Just eliminated from the playoffs, Joe Brady was able to continue with a job interview for the position of head coach of the Ravens this Sunday. Brady was also expected to trade with the Falcons but the hiring of Kevin Stefanski should cancel the meeting. The Bills’ offensive coordinator since 2023, Brady continued to develop Josh Allen while taking Buffalo’s ground game to the next level with James Cook.

The Baltimore franchise also met Robert Saleh (DC, 49ers) this weekend.

Brian Daboll continues interviews

Brian Daboll is multiplying avenues for a future position. This week he will visit the Chargers for an interview regarding their offensive coordinator position. The former head coach of the Giants will also have the same type of interview for the Eagles.

But according to NFL Media, Daboll also has a chance to bounce back as head coach with a meeting scheduled with the Titans.

While it seems unlikely to see him become head coach again directly after his record of 20 wins for 40 losses with the Giants, Daboll maintains a good rating as offensive coordinator after prolific years with the Bills and having made Josh Allen one of the best quarterbacks in the league.

The Eagles continue the search

In addition to Brian Daboll, the Eagles will interview Mike Kafka, Bobby Slowik and Jim Bob Cooter for their offensive coordinator position.

Mike Kafka was the Giants’ offensive coordinator, before becoming their head coach following the firing of Brian Daboll. Jim Bob Cooter has been the Colts offensive coordinator since 2023 and is coming off a rather interesting 2025 season with the work done around Daniel Jones (QB). Furthermore, Cooter knows Nick Sirianni (HC, Eagles) well, Cooter was with the Eagles in 2021. As for Bobby Slowik, he is currently the passing game coordinator for the Dolphins. But his future is uncertain with a Dolphins team looking for a new head coach.

Trent Williams wants to continue

At 38 years old, Trent Williams (LT, 49ers) could be thinking about retirement and spending some peaceful time. But that’s clearly not the plan for the lineman.
In a recent interview for the team’s official website, Williams confirmed that he wants to be back on the field and with the 49ers in 2026. The player even explains that he thinks the 49ers have a “bright” future.

Green Day au Super Bowl

The NFL announces that the famous punk rock band Green Day will be present at Super Bowl LX. Green Day will open the day by performing at the Super Bowl opening ceremony at Levi’s Stadium.
