REPORT: Cleveland Browns Interested In Urban Meyer As Head Coach

Ohio State University is a little over 2 hours away from FirstEnergy Stadium and that could very well be the new home of a very familiar head coach.

On Thursday, FOX reporter Bruce Feldman reported the Browns have strong interest in fellow FOX analyst Urban Meyer as a candidate for their head coaching vacancy.

The former Ohio State retired from his position after the 2018 season, citing health as the primary reason.

Per Mark Maske, Meyer has reportedly caught “the itch” to return to coaching and will consider any NFL head coaching offers.

One person who has spoken to Urban Meyer in recent weeks says that Meyer now has "that itch" to return to coaching. He's likely to consider any NFL head coaching offers and probably is not a candidate for the Redskins' front office.

It was just a few months ago when Meyer appeared on The Herd With Colin Cowherd and was asked if he was interested in talking with the Cowboys.

“Absolutely. Absolutely,” Meyer said. “That one? Yes.”

The 55-year-old is clearly wanted in the NFL, it;s just a matter of when and where he will end up.
