Former Cowboys Coach Doug Nussmeier Interviews for Ravens OC
Just days after former Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore found a new home with the Los Angeles Chargers, former Cowboys quarterbacks coach Doug Nussmeier could be close to doing the same in Baltimore.
Per an ESPN report, Nussmeier has interviewed for the vacant offensive coordinator position with the drama-riddled Ravens.
The Ravens are also set for a second interview with Seahawks quarterback coach Dave Canale, while reportedly still interested in Bills receivers coach Chad Hall, and Georgia offensive coordinator Tonn Monken, among others.
Nussmeier has served as the Cowboys' quarterbacks coach for the past three seasons and was released from his duties at the same time as Moore. Both had expiring contracts.
Nussmeier previously served as the tight ends coach for Dallas for two years and has coaching experience at the collegiate level running the offenses at Florida, Michigan, Alabama, Washington, and Fresno State.
Nussmeier would replace Greg Roman, who departed the club in January after six seasons.
The Ravens are in the middle of a dramatic and public contract negotiation with star quarterback and former league MVP Lamar Jackson. Jackson's rookie deal expires this offseason and the team and former Heisman winner have failed to reach an agreement on a new extension.
Harbaugh told reporters last month that the team will cast a "wide net" in the search for Roman's replacement, adding that Jackson will be involved in the hiring process and the quarterback will be kept "abreast" of the search.
