Former New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has interviewed for several head coach and offensive coordinator positions, but there is belief in some circles that he could be new Tennessee Titans head coach Robert Saleh's offensive coordinator choice. It is believed Daboll would have autonomy in Tennessee working under a defensive-minded coach.
Link to storyFormer New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll interviewed for the offensive coordinator position with the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday, Jan. 20. He is reportedly the top target for the team's management, and there is also indications of internal support to bring someone in who would make significant changes to the offense.
Link to storyNew York Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) continues his rehab from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Link to storyFormer St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears head coach Mike Martz said he would take the Cleveland Browns' head coaching job in a heartbeat. 'I would take the Cleveland job in a heartbeat,' Martz said. 'You need to change the culture...Kevin (Stefanski) started that. And I think I could solve that QB problem. I could resolve that issue on offense, in my mind.'
| Footballguys view: Martz retired from coaching way back in 2012, although he did coach in the AAF in 2019. He is known for his work with the "Greatest Show on Turf" back in the Kurt Warner days with the Rams, but Martz did not have the same success after that. At age 63, it's interesting that he would throw his hat in the ring. Martz's statement about solving the QB problem is something whoever is hired needs to be the primary objective. |
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (foot) might need a foot procedure in the offseason, according to general manager Brandon Beane.
| Footballguys view: The operation would not keep him out long enough to jeopardize his participation in OTAs. However, the Bills might choose to ease him into action during the offseason. After years of falling short with Sean McDermott, Allen is looking to make (and win) a Super Bowl for the first time in his career. |

| Footballguys view: Reports indicate Mixon got some treatment away from the facility, and that could lean the Texans to moving on from the veteran back. His future in Houston is unknown at this time, but Mixon is under contract with a $10.5 million cap hit and $2 million in dead money. |

Green Bay Packers CB Trevon Diggs was released on Tuesday, Jan. 20.
| Footballguys view: Diggs was claimed off waivers in late December after the Cowboys released him. But he did not make an impact for the club. While Diggs played 33 defensive snaps in the regular-season finale against Minnesota -- during which the Packers rested their starters -- he was on the field for just one snap in the postseason loss to Chicago. Though he led the league with 11 interceptions in 2021, Diggs has played just 22 games since the 2022 season. We'll be watching to see what the future might hold. |

Hafley was on the list of second interviews with Las Vegas, but his agreement with Miami leaves Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero as the only other reported candidate set to meet with the team again.
