AFC Notes: Bengals, Browns, Ravens, Lamar Jackson

Bengals

Bengals LB Logan Wilson feels lucky that DC Lou Anarumo was not hired as the Cardinalsโ€™ head coach and will be returning to Cincinnati next season.

โ€œSelfishly, Iโ€™m ecstatic heโ€™ll be back but heโ€™d still make a great head coach,โ€ Wilson said, via Bengals.com. โ€œGlad to be in his system for another year.โ€

Browns

  • USA Todayโ€™s Jacob Roach looks at Browns DC Jim Schwartzโ€˜s past coaching connections to see if there are any candidates to join his staff in Cleveland. 
  • Current XFL assistant and Eagles DL coach Phillip Daniels would be a candidate for a similar role on staff under Schwartz, per Roach. He also mentions Texans CB coach Dino Vasso and former Colorado DC Chris Wilson. All three worked with Schwartz in Philadelphia. 

Ravens

  • CBS Sportsโ€™ Jonathan Jones reports the Ravens did not โ€œfully integrateโ€ QB Lamar Jackson into their search for a new offensive coordinator before landing on Todd Monken
  • The Athleticโ€™s Jeff Zrebiec said his understanding was Jackson may not have been interested in being involved in Baltimoreโ€™s offensive coordinator hire after being given โ€œmultiple opportunities to provide input.โ€
  • When appearing on the Rich Eisen Show, NBC Sportsโ€™ Peter King said he thinks the biggest storyline of the offseason is what happens with Jackson going forward. 
  • King is unsure about how much guaranteed money any team will be willing to give Jackson after missing 34 percent of snaps over the last two years.
