The first hiring of the NFL's 2025 coaching cycle is in the books with the New England Patriots reaching a deal with Mike Vrabel.
That leaves five teams looking for a new coach: Chicago Bears, Jacksonville Jaguars, Las Vegas Raiders, New Orleans Saints and New York Jets.
The Patriots were able to get a jump on the market because Vrabel was unemployed. He refrained from taking a full-time coaching opportunity after the Tennessee Titans fired him last offseason.
A lot of the top candidates for other teams, however, are still working for their respective organizations with the playoffs ongoing.
