Regarding head coaching jobs, teams must conduct an in-person interview with at least two external candidates who are people of color and/or women. Virtual interviews don't satisfy Rooney Rule requirements, per the NFL.

The #Jaguars are bringing in longtime NFL defensive coordinator Patrick Graham for a second interview Thursday for their head coaching job, per me and @RapSheet.

Graham, 45, was a finalist in Minnesota before they hired Kevin O'Connell. Now, a longer look in Jacksonville. pic.twitter.com/Vn9CgB1wHd
Now i have no idea what Jacksonville is doing.
Due diligence with the defensive minded guys. I still expect them to go offensive there

Something that should be mentioned, interviews to satisfy the Rooney Rule provision must be done in person. Virtual interviews are not enough. Thus far, the Jaguars have conducted nine virtual interviews and one in person interview(Saleh, the only one not under contract with some other team.)

It was reported that Johnson and Coen were the favorites. They couldn't hire Coen until they interview at least one more minority candidate in person so as to be in compliance.

At minimum Jacksonville is required to interview at least one more minority candidate in person to be in compliance.

So Patrick Graham and Saleh satisfied the two in person minority candidates. sounds like it is down to Coen and Sakeh, because I don't know what Graham brings to the table.

This is pure insanity. Our season ended a while ago and no one has been signed. You actually believe these coaches would rather go to rebuilding franchises than to come here? Does no one want to work with Kyle's arrogant a**?

Patrick Graham hasn't interviewed in person, it was a virtual interview. Which would not satisfy the Rooney provision.
As of today, Saleh is the only Rooney qualifying candidate that they've interviewed in-person.

So bringing Saleh back to interview, means one or two things: 1) Saleh and Liam Coen are the two finalists 2) Balke is trying to screw the 49ers
