Report: Todd Bowles tells Cleveland Browns to remove him from consideration

Jan 14, 2014, 8:57 PM | Updated: 8:58 pm

And then there was one?

Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator Todd Bowles interviewed with both the Cleveland Browns and Minnesota Vikings regarding their head coaching vacancies, but is apparently no longer interested in at least one of the jobs.

If true, it would appear that Bowles is only in line for the Minnesota job, where Cincinnati Bengals DC Mike Zimmer is thought to be the frontrunner.

The reason for Bowles removing his name could range from feeling like he was not going to get the job and saving face to perhaps deciding he did not want to be the head coach of the Cleveland Browns.

Whatever it is, the Cardinals would certainly be happy to have him back next season to try and continue building what has become one of the NFL’s best defenses.
