The Baltimore Ravens have officially requested permission to interview Jacksonville Jaguars assistant Tyler Tettleton for their open wide receivers coach position, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Tyler Tettleton has quickly become a highly-regarded name in coaching circles. Currently a key member of the Jaguars' staff, he is reportedly deeply involved in the team's offensive game planning. His contributions in Jacksonville have led many around the league to view him as a future offensive coordinator candidate.
The interest from the Ravens follows a year in which Tettleton's coaching stock rose significantly. Last year, he was a candidate for the head coaching vacancy at Ohio University, his alma mater, where he ultimately interviewed for the position. If hired by Baltimore, Tettleton would transition into a specialized role leading the wide receiver room for a perennial AFC contender.
The Ravens are looking to finalize their coaching staff as they move into the heart of the offseason. Tettleton's reputation for offensive strategy makes him a compelling target for a team looking to maximize its passing attack.
