Report: Josh McDaniels' Wife Traveled With Him For Browns Interview

A big piece of information was shared in regards to New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels' travels to Cleveland to meet with the Browns for their head-coaching vacancy.

According to NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport, McDaniels brought his wife, Laura, on the trip with him to Cleveland Friday morning.

This is an important detail for today’s interview for #Patriots OC Josh McDaniels with the #Browns: His wife Laura is on the trip. It is possible, if all goes well, Cleveland could close it out today. All the pieces are in place as a big decision looms for the #Browns.

Why is this a big deal? Well, one has to think that McDaniels wouldn't bring a family member with him unless he felt a big decision was about to be made today. If he felt he would have time after the interview to make a decision, he would fly back to Massachusetts and mull his decision over with his family. Instead, he has brought his wife with him to Cleveland, which points towards a decision being made today on him potentially becoming the Browns' new head coach.
