Bengals’ Brian Callahan says head-coaching interviews won’t hurt prep for Titans

Bengals’ Brian Callahan says head-coaching interviews won’t hurt prep for Titans

Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan is a big name during this year’s head coach cycle.

While his Bengals have prepped for the divisional round game against the Tennessee Titans, he’s received big interest from teams like the Denver Broncos.

But Callahan stressed with ESPN’s Ben Baby that the individual chances aren’t impacting how he’s helping the Bengals prep for their big game:

“You get individual benefits from the collective success. That’s certainly where I’m at right now. It’s an honor to be included in a process like that. But I would never take anything away from my preparation for a game of this magnitude.”

That it’s Denver giving Callahan interest is a bit poetic — he was a member of the coaching staff there from 2010-2015. His involvement in helping develop Joe Burrow sure isn’t hurting things.

Given how great the offense has been in Burrow’s last three outings, it’s hard to imagine this has any greater impact, though it’s certainly a factor worth considering before the Bengals play for the right to advance to the AFC title game.
