Offensive Panthers coordinator Joe Brady made a name for himself in 2019 when Joe Burrow won the Heisman Trophy and LSU won the national championship.

Brady, the coach of the Tigers receivers and coordinator for passing games, described it as a job at the Panthers after appointing Matt Rhule as head coach.

After one season in his current position, Brady is a hot commodity.

The Hawks, Texans and Chargers all have permission requested to interview 31-year-old Brady for their vacancies for head coaches, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Media.

The Chargers also have Colts defense coordinator Matt Eberflus, Giants attacking coordinator Jason Garrett and Rams defense coordinator Brandon Staley on their roster.

The Texans have already talked to Jim Caldwell and Marvin Lewis, former NFL head coaches, and asked for an interview with Eberflus.

The Falcons spoke to Chiefs attacking coordinator Eric Bieniemy and interim coach Raheem Morris. They requested an interview with 49ers defense coordinator Robert Saleh.
