2024 NFL coaching carousel: Tracking rumors, interviews of Lions coordinators

Detroit Lions coordinators Aaron Glenn and Ben Johnson are hot candidates in the 2024 NFL coaching carousel. We’re tracking all the interviews here.

The 2024 NFL coaching carousel is underway, and it already appears Detroit Lions coordinators will be hot commodities this year. The Lions are no stranger to having coveted coaches, as both offensive coordinator Ben Johnson and defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn have interviewed for head coaching jobs in the past.

On Black Monday, the Lions coordinators have already received multiple requests for interviews, and that’s likely to continue throughout the process. It’s worth noting, though, that the coordinators cannot even do a virtual interview until at least three days after the Wild Card round of the playoffs. In-person interviews cannot be conducted until after the Divisional Round.

We’re going to keep track of all the interview requests, conducted interviews, and hires right here. We’ll not only track the Lions interviews, but the other candidates who are up for the same job.
