Harold Goodwin

Tom Cable

Tom Pelissero of USA Today reports Seahawks OL coach Tom Cable is expected to draw head-coaching interest.

Former Seahawks RB Marshawn Lynch supports Cable as a head coach.

“He connects with — I ain’t even going to say player to coach, but I’m going to say a person — it’s more of that aspect rather than just football player-coach relationship,” Lynch said. “He takes the time to try to figure that out.”

49ers

• Jay Glazer reports that 49ers GM Trent Baalke actually went to ownership a few years ago after they were prepared to hire then-Broncos OC Adam Gase as their next head coach and convinced them to not hire Gase.
• In regards to the report that the 49ers are expected to move on from HC Chip Kelly, Glazer says that they haven’t informed him of any official decision.
• Although, they did inform Baalke of their decision to part ways with him two days ago.

Jets

• Jason La Canfora reports that Jets owner Woody Johnson does not intend to make sweeping changes to the organization after the season, despite being unhappy with how things went this year.
• Instead, La Canfora says that Johnson plans to keep HC Todd Bowles and GM Mike Maccagnan in place but there could be other changes to the coaching staff.

Rams

• Tom Pelissero reports that the Rams plan to start interviews with candidates for their head-coaching vacancy this week with NFL offensive assistants and go from there.
• Pelissero considers Patriots OC Josh McDaniels and Bills interim HC Anthony Lynn to be among logical targets for the job.
