BEREA, Ohio - The Browns coordinator interviews continue this week. The Washington Post reports that Redskins defensive backs coach Raheem Morris will interview with the Browns.

The Redskins hired Morris last January after he was fired as head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Morris coached a Redskins unit that was hit hard by injuries last season, but played hard down the stretch to help the team reel off seven-straight wins and get into the playoffs.

Morris was in Tampa for three years from 2009 to 2011. He compiled a record of 17-31 and finished no better then third during his second season.
