The list of Ravens targets for their head coaching position has grown. Joe Brady is the latest name to emerge on that front. 
Baltimore has submitted an interview request with the Bills‘ offensive coordinator, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Brady has previously been linked to the Giants, but this represents the first formal interview request in his case. With Buffalo set to play in the wild-card round, an interview cannot take place until next week.
Brady worked as an assistant with the Saints for two years before taking on the role of pass-game coordinator at LSU in 2019. His success in that capacity resulted in a return to the NFL coaching ranks and a new role along the way. Brady served as Matt Rhule‘s OC with the Panthers for two years.
Things did not go according to plan in Carolina, and prior to his own dismissal Rhule replaced Brady. The latter moved on to Buffalo, taking over as the team’s quarterbacks coach. Brady wound up replacing Ken Dorsey midway through the 2023 season, and he has overseen the Bills’ offense since then. Not for the first time in his career, though, the 36-year-old finds himself on the radar of HC-needy teams.
The Ravens moved on from John Harbaugh earlier this week, creating the team’s first head coaching vacancy since 2008. Candidates with a background on offense and defense have been connected to the opening, to no surprise. Brady is among the comparatively few staffers set to be in demand with a history of calling plays on offense.
Meanwhile, the Ravens announced on Friday that they have completed an interview with Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak. The former Vikings and Saints offensive coordinator has enjoyed a strong debut season in Seattle, one in which he has worked alongside former Ravens assistant Mike Macdonald. Todd Monken has called plays in Baltimore during each of the past three seasons, but a new head coach with a background such as Brady or Kubiak would likely handle those responsibilities in 2026.
