According to Mary Kay Cabot, the Browns will request an interview with Rams DC Chris Shula for their head coaching vacancy.
Shula is one of the more popular candidates in this year’s coaching cycle.
Here’s where the Browns’ search stands so far:
- Ravens OC Todd Monken (Interviewed)
- Browns OC Tommy Rees (Interviewed)
- Browns DC Jim Schwartz (Interviewed)
- Seahawks DC Aden Durde (Requested)
- Bengals OC Dan Pitcher (Scheduled)
- Former Dolphins HC Mike McDaniel (Scheduled)
- Former Ravens HC John Harbaugh (Expected)
- Chargers DC Jesse Minter (Requested)
- Rams pass game coordinator Nate Scheelhaase (Requested)
- Jaguars OC Grant Udinski (Requested)
- Rams DC Chris Shula (Requested)
Shula, 39, is the son of Dave Shula and the grandson of Hall of Fame coach Don Shula. He began his coaching career with the Chargers as a defensive quality control coach back in 2015.
He then became an assistant linebackers coach for the Rams during the 2017 season and was promoted to OLB coach in 2019. Since then, he’s moved around the staff a bit, coaching linebackers and defensive backs before moving back to outside linebackers/pass rush coordinator in 2023.
Los Angeles promoted him to defensive coordinator in 2024.
In 2025, the Rams defense ranked No. 10 in scoring and No. 17 in total defense, including No. 12 in rushing and No. 19 against the pass.
