Ohio State is finalizing a deal to make former Pittsburgh Steelers play-caller Arthur Smith its offensive coordinator, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. Smith will replace Brian Hartline, who recently was named head coach at South Florida. Smith spent the last two seasons with the Steelers under coach Mike Tomlin. Before that, he was the head coach for the Atlanta Falcons, compiling a record of 21-30 over three seasons.

The Lions' search for a new offensive coordinator continues to expand. Current Falcons OC Zac Robinson is the latest candidate to line up an interview. Robinson will speak with Detroit today about the position, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. That makes two teams interested in his case. The Buccaneers have already interviewed Robinson for their OC opening. With a Todd Monken reunion seemingly unlikely, Tampa Bay could show continued interest in his case.
