Ravens announce interview with Jim Schwartz

The Baltimore Ravens have completed an interview with Browns defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz for their head coaching position. This marks the team's ninth interview since parting ways with John Harbaugh last week, with more interviews expected before advancing to subsequent rounds. Schwartz, who served as a Ravens assistant from 1996 to 1998, has previously been a head coach for the Detroit Lions, where he compiled a 29-51 record over five seasons. Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti expressed interest in candidates like Schwartz who have been considered strong coaching prospects but did not achieve significant success in their initial head coaching roles. Other candidates fitting this profile include Brian Flores, Kliff Kingsbury, Matt Nagy, Vance Joseph, and Kevin Stefanski.
