CLEVELAND (AP) -- Perry Fewell's first shot as an NFL coach was temporary. He'd like to make his next one a little more permanent.Fewell, the New York Giants defensive coordinator who served as Buffalo's interim coach for seven games last season, interviewed on Tuesday with the Cleveland Browns, the third known candidate to formally meet with team president Mike Holmgren.
Fewell followed St. Louis offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur and Atlanta offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey, who met with the Browns last week. It's not yet known if the club has scheduled any more interviews or follow-ups. It's also unclear if owner Randy Lerner has had any role in the process.
However, Cleveland's search to replace Eric Mangini does seem to be narrowing.
The Browns, who have kept their pursuit of a new coach cloaked in secrecy, were expected to speak with Philadelphia offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg because of his personal and professional connections with Holmgren. However, that meeting has not been set up.
Also, former NFL coach and current ESPN analyst Jon Gruden appears to be out of the Browns' mix.
