Steve Sarkisian could be in for an interesting offseason once Texas’ College Football Playoff run ends.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, NFL teams could call and inquire about Sarkisian as they look to fill open head coaching roles. Schefter added that Sarkisian has drawn some interest from the NFL level.

Sarkisian is currently in the middle of his second CFP push with the Longhorns. Texas sits at 13-2 and is one win away from playing for a national championship.

In February 2024, Sarkisian received a four-year extension that keeps him at Texas through 2030. He has led the Longhorns to a 38-16 record since taking over the program in 2021.

Sarkisian has experience at the NFL level, previously serving as the Oakland Raiders’ quarterbacks coach in 2004 and the Atlanta Falcons’ offensive coordinator from 2017-18.

Texas looks to keep its strong season rolling when it takes on Ohio State in the Cotton Bowl Classic on Friday at AT&T Stadium.
