We’re officially down to a final four in the Cleveland Browns’ 2026 head coach search.
Los Angeles Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, one of the team’s five scheduled in-person interviews for this week, canceled his meeting with the Browns with an eye on one of his many other opportunities.
Breaking: #Chargers DC Jesse Minter is not interviewing for the #Browns HC job today as scheduled, likely because he feels like he has other HC opportunities that are more certain, sources tell clevelanddotcom.

Minter becomes the second coach to say no thanks to the Browns’ request for a second interview, joining ex-Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel.
