CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Fired Titans coach Mike Mularkey is on the Browns' radar for their offensive coordinator opening, a league source told cleveland.com

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport first reported that Cleveland could be a landing spot for the long-time head coach and offensive coordinator. He also reported that the Browns are interviewing TCU co-offensive coordinator Curtis Luper for their running backs coach vacancy.

Jackson has been in the process of interviewing coordinators, and would be willing to hand over play-calling duties to an experienced coordinator such Mularkey, 56.

He's interviewed Texans quarterbacks coach Sean Ryan and talked to several others for the job.

Mularkey could be in demand with all of the head coach and coordinator jobs currently open.

Mularkey was fired by the Titans on Monday, two days after they lost to the Patriots 35-14 in the divisional round. The Titans went 9-7 in each of the past two seasons after he took over as interim coach with five games left in the 2015 season when Ken Whisenhunt was fired. They finished 3-13 that year.

The Titans had assured Mularkey before the playoff game he was staying, and were working on terms of an extension. But things changed after the loss.

"I want to thank Mike Mularkey for his contributions to our franchise over his tenure with our organization," Titans owner Amy Adams Strunk said in a statement. "He took over our team during a low moment and together with (GM) Jon (Robinson) built a solid foundation for our franchise. I appreciated that Mike devoted himself to this team and the community.''

Strunk acknowledged the team reversed field.

"In fact, we did discuss extending his future with our team over the past week, but in those discussions about the direction of the team, it became evident that we saw different paths to achieve greater success,'' she said in the statement.

Jackson has overhauled his coaching staff this offseason, parting ways with special teams coordinator Chris Tabor, run game coordinator Kirby Wilson and others. He added Adam Henry as receivers coach and Ken Zampese as quarterbacks coach.

Mularkey would bring 23 years of NFL coaching experience, including five-plus as a head coach and eight as a coordinator. He served as coordinator for the Steelers, Dolphins and Falcons.

If Jackson hires a coordinator who's never called plays, he'll likely continue to call them himself. But if he can land someone like Mularkey, he'd give up the chore.

Ryan, who's never called plays, wants to do so, which is one reason he left here last week without a contract.
