Former Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks coach Doug Nussmeier could be back in the league soon. Nussmeier reportedly interviewed with the Baltimore Ravens for their open offensive coordinator job this week.

Several other candidates have interviewed as well, with at least three reported to have locked in a second. Georgia offensive coordinator Todd Monken, Broncos coordinator Justin Outten and Seahawks quarterbacks coach Dave Canales either have or will have second interviews.

The Ravens may also interview Vikings pass-game coordinator Brian Angelichio a second time. Angelichio interviewed with the Dallas Cowboys for their offensive coordinator opening before they announced the promotion of offensive analyst Brian Schottenheimer.

With plenty of offensive staff turnover all over the league, it’s unlikely that Nussmeier will stay on the market long. However, it’s unclear whether he’ll move on to the second round with the Ravens.

Nussmeier was the Cowboys quarterbacks coach for three years. However, after a down year from Dak Prescott, he was one of eight staff members not returning for the 2023 season.

Cowboys announce Brian Schottenheimer as new OC

The Dallas Cowboys have a new offensive coordinator, and his name is Brian Schottenheimer.

On Saturday, the franchise announced that the long-time NFL assistant is now the offensive coordinator on Mike McCarthy’s staff in 2023, replacing Kellen Moore.

Along with the announcement, McCarthy released a statement, where he elaborated on how exuberant he is to have Schottenheimer as his right-hand man on offense.

“I am very happy to have Brian take on this key role with our team. He has been an important part of our staff already and has a great grasp of where we are and where we want to go,” said McCarthy, per the franchise. “Brian also has an exceptionally strong foundation, history and relationships beyond his time here that translate very well into understanding what our approach to operating and executing will be for the future.

“This will be an exciting and efficient transition for us that I am confident will help yield the growth and results we all want and expect.”

Moreover, Schottenheimer has been an offensive coordinator at multiple stops in the NFL, beginning with the New York Jets (2006-2011) to the St. Louis Rams (2012-2014) and most recently the Seattle Seahawks (2018-2020). In between, he spent time at the collegiate level, serving as the offensive coordinator of the Georgia Bulldogs in 2015.
