CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Scratch Cowboys assistants Bill Callahan and Scott Linehan off the list of Browns offensive coordinator candidates.



Callahan, the former offensive coordinator/offensive line coach of the Cowboys, has signed a three-year deal to be the offensive line coach of the Redskins, according to ESPN's Ed Werder.

Linehan, the Cowboys' passing game coordinator, has reached a three-year deal with Dallas to be their coordinator. As it was, he called the plays last year instead of Callahan, who had the duties removed from him.

The Browns had requested permission to interview both of them for their coordinator vacancy, but it never got to that point with either of them.

The Browns are believed to be looking for more of a pass-oriented coach than Callahan would've been.

The Browns will interview Raiders quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo on Friday and Bills senior offensive assistant Jim Hostler later this week. They'll talk to Raiders senior assistant Al Saunders on Tuesday and will interview Jets assistant head coach/running backs coach Anthony Lynn at the Senior Bowl next week. They are also interviewing their tight ends coach Brian Angelichio.

Two candidates the Browns have already interviewed, Marc Trestman and Chan Gailey, have opportunities to go with other teams. New Raiders coach Jack Del Rio is reportedly interested in Trestman, and new Jets coach Todd Bowles is expected to hire Gailey.

The Browns had an interview scheduled for Monday with former 49ers offensive coordinator Greg Roman, but he joined new Bills head coach Rex Ryan before the Browns had a chance to interview him.

In addition to coordinator, the Browns will be looking for a quarterbacks coach to replace Dowell Loggains and a receivers coach to replace Mike McDaniel, who mutually parted ways with the team Thursday.
