Seahawks coordinators Darrell Bevell, Gus Bradley are candidates for three remaining

[Feed Robot]

Now that the Chicago Bears have hired Marc Trestman to be their head coach, three head coaching positions remain. The Arizona Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles are in their third week without a head coach, while the Jacksonville Jaguars are in the second week of their search for a replacement for Mike Mularkey. Here's an update on those searches, along with the Cleveland Browns and New York Jets searches for a new general manager. Arizona Cardinals : The Cardinals have interviewed current defensive coordinator Ray Horton, Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Todd Haley, and Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden, who remain in the mix for the position. Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy was also a candidate, but accepted the San Diego Chargers' head coaching job on Tuesday. The Cardinals are scheduled to interview Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell on Wednesday. Jacksonville Jaguars : GM David Caldwell interviewed current defensive coordinator Mel Tucker, who went 2-3 as the team's interim head coach at the end of the 2011 season. Offensive coordinators Jay Gruden (Bengals) and Brian Schottenheimer (St. Louis Rams) have also interviewed for the position. Caldwell has expanded the search to include Seahawks coordinators Darrell Bevell (offense) and Gus Bradley (defense), but the favorite for the position remains San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman, who played with Caldwell at John Carroll University, but is unavailable to interview while the 49ers remain alive in the playoffs. Philadelphia Eagles : On Tuesday, the Eagles interviewed Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley for a second time after meeting with him briefly in Atlanta last Saturday. Bradley is the first candidate to have a second interview with the team. The "short list" in Philadelphia reportedly includes former Cardinals head coach Ken Whisenhunt and former Baltimore Ravens head coach Brian Billick. The Eagles also interviewed Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Mike Nolan and special teams coordinator Keith Armstrong, Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden and Colts offensive coordinator Bruce Arians. Philadelphia missed out on Oregon head coach Chip Kelly, Penn State head coach Bill O'Brien and Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly, each of whom remained in their current positions, and former Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy, who is now the head coach of the Chargers. Syracuse head coach Doug Marrone was also a candidate, but was hired by the Buffalo Bills.
