The NFL's owners reportedly have approved a new rule that would allow teams to begin interviewing potential head-coaching candidates in the final two weeks of the regular season, according to the NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.
The new resolution, which will be tested on a one-year trial period, only applies to teams where the head coach "who began the season is no longer employed or has been given notice he won’t return. So in order to take the head start, teams must fire their current coach two weeks early."
