Jim Brown spilled the beans about Mike Holmgren talking to the Browns earlier this week. Owner Randy Lerner stayed tight-lipped about the matter, and it appears Holmgren is following Lerner’s lead. Sort of.
Speaking on 950 KJR in Seattle Friday, Holmgren denied speaking with Lerner. But . . .
“I’d love to talk with Cleveland someday,” Holmgren said.
Florio enumerated the many reasons Holmgren (and Lerner) have to keep discussions quiet. But Holmgren’s obvious interest is newsworthy enough on its own.
As the Tacoma News Tribune points out, the question is whether Holmgren will get offers from elsewhere -- including, possibly, a role with the Seahawks.
