Brian Callahan – Cincinnati Bengals

This past Thursday, the club’s hierarchy had a sitdown with Brian Callahan, the offensive coordinator of the Cincinnati Bengals. “Big Red” needs someone who can get the best out of quarterback Kyler Murray, and the 38-year-old Callahan may be up to the task.

For the past four campaigns, Callahan (along with head coach Zac Taylor) has been the catalyst for the success of Bengals signal-caller Joe Burrow. This past fall, the 26-year-old passer was voted to the Pro Bowl for the first time in his professional career.

Could Callahan do for Murray in the desert what he has done for Burrow in Cincinnati? It would not be surprising in the least if Bidwill gives the up and coming Bengals assistant an opportunity to get the erratic Arizona Cardinals passer back on track.
