With Jim Schwartz sending in his letter of resignation last week, the Cleveland Browns and new head coach Todd Monken are hard at work looking for a new defensive coordinator. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo is reporting that Cleveland has requested permission to interview New York Giants assistant coach Charlie Bullen for the defensive coordinator job.
Bullen has been the Giants' outside linebackers coach since 2024 and also spent time as the team's interim defensive coordinator after New York fired Shane Bowen in November. Bullen spent time as a linebackers coach for Illinois in 2023 and the Arizona Cardinals from 2019 to 2022. He was also an assistant for the Miami Dolphins from 2012 to 2018, coaching the defensive line and linebackers.
The Browns have already met with two internal candidates in Ephraim Banda and Jason Tarver, but they seem to be spreading a wide net in this search, just like they did with the head coach job before hiring Todd Monken.
