Another head coaching candidate interview is confirmed.

The Chicago Bears completed an interview with Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken Friday.

Monken is one of the over a dozen head coaching candidates the team plans on interviewing or has already interviewed.

This is inside of the window for teams active in the NFL Divisional round. It makes sense as Baltimore plays the Buffalo Bills on Sunday and game planning for the game is largely done at this point.

Monken, 58, is in his second season as the offensive coordinator for the Ravens. Their offense has Lamar Jackson playing the best all-around football of his career and in the race for a second-straight NFL MVP award.

The Ravens offense ranked first in yards, third in points, first in rush yards and seventh in pass yards this season.

Before that he was the OC for the back-to-back National Champion Georgia Bulldogs.

He has extensive experience in the NFL and at the college level with stops with the Cleveland Browns, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Oklahoma State University and Southern Mississippi, among others.
