"Flores is in high demand. He's already interviewed for the Baltimore Ravens' head-coaching opening. The Minnesota Vikings are confident about keeping him around if he fails to get a top job elsewhere. And the biggest possible danger also threw their hat into the ring just as the respected defensive mind was sitting down with head coach Dan Quinn and others in positions of power."
"According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Pittsburgh Steelers are seeking an interview with Flores to replace Mike Tomlin, who stepped down after 19 years in charge following the team's playoff blowout loss to the Houston Texans. This has emotional ties, as the AFC North club was the one that got him back into the coaching game after things fizzled with the Miami Dolphins."
"The Steelers aren't renowned for quickly giving up on their head coaches. This would provide the security needed to put Pittsburgh back in a position to contend for Super Bowls again. It's a risk, especially with a lot of aging players and no plan at the quarterback position, but Flores will likely speak with those in power before deciding on his next move."
Brian Flores interviewed with the Washington Commanders for their vacant defensive coordinator position while remaining a sought-after candidate across the league. He has interviewed for the Baltimore Ravens' head-coaching opening and draws retention interest from the Minnesota Vikings if he fails to land a top job. The Pittsburgh Steelers requested an interview to replace Mike Tomlin, offering a potential head-coaching path with job security despite roster age and quarterback uncertainty. Washington is also interviewing Jonathan Gannon and others to replace Joe Whitt Jr. Flores' familiarity with Adam Peters and respect for Dan Quinn factor into his evaluation of options.
