Overview
- Multiple outlets report Baltimore plans to meet with Minnesota defensive coordinator Brian Flores about its vacancy following John Harbaugh’s exit earlier this week.
- Flores, 44, has led a Vikings unit that posted top-five results in 2025, including allowing just 158.5 passing yards per game.
- His contract with Minnesota is expiring, positioning him to pursue head-coach opportunities this hiring cycle.
- Flores previously coached the Miami Dolphins and later joined Pittsburgh as a senior defensive assistant before taking the Vikings job.
- His ongoing lawsuit against the NFL and several teams, which includes the Giants but not the Ravens, remains a factor teams are evaluating, as Baltimore also lines up interviews with Klint Kubiak, Anthony Weaver, Davis Webb, Matt Nagy, and has completed one with Vance Joseph.
