Mandatory Credit: Sam Navarro-Imagn Images Fired as head coach of the Miami Dolphins on Thursday, Mike McDaniel will interview for the same position with the Cleveland Browns on Monday, multiple media outlets reported on Sunday.
McDaniel, 42, went 7-10 this season and posted a 35-33 record over four seasons, which included a pair of postseason appearances in his first two years with Miami. He signed a three-year contract extension in August 2024.
McDaniel -- the Browns' wide receivers coach in 2014 -- will be Cleveland's lone head coach interview on Monday and the sixth overall. Two-time Coach of the Year Kevin Stefanski was dismissed last Monday after posting a 45-56 record over six seasons and leading the Browns to the playoffs twice.
The Browns have interviewed their offensive coordinator Tommy Rees and defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, along with Baltimore Ravens OC Todd Monken, Seattle Seahawks DC Aden Durde and Cincinnati Bengals OC Dan Pitcher.
They've also reportedly requested an interview with Rams pass game coordinator Nate Scheelhause.
