    >This week, Pleasant has earned a second opportunity to serve as acting head coach, doing so for this Saturday’s preseason game against the Chargers at SoFi Stadium.

    >”No question (it’s helped me with the bigger picture of what it would be like to run a team),” Pleasant said after Tuesday’s practice. “You can only imagine what it’s like to actually go through this process, but to actually get the due diligence to be able to go through it. In life, you’re provided platforms and you’re provided opportunities, and I couldn’t be more thankful to be able to do this with a team that gave me my first opportunity as a position coach, which is now giving me my (second) opportunity in a head coaching role.”

  2. Potential dc candidate if Shula gets hired away. I’ve always liked pleasant. He and Jimmy lake probably the internal candidates if it came to that. Though neither succeeded in their first full dc role elsewhere, both were brought back in similar or senior positions and seem to be well regarded.
