Adding to that, per Rob Guerrera of NBC Sports, Fisher did say an NFL job wasn't something he was actively seeking out and provided a good reason why:

In December, Fisher agreed to an eight-year contract extension with Florida State that runs through 2022. That doesn't necessarily mean anything, as college coaches switch jobs all the time and are usually only responsible for a buyout in the deal. 

If he were to make the jump to the NFL, which presumably wouldn't happen until 2016 at the earliest, it would be a change for him. The 49-year-old has spent his entire coaching career in college, starting as the quarterbacks coach at Samford in 1988. 

He would seem to have as much job security as any college coach in the country, not just because of his contract. He won a national championship two years ago, went undefeated in the regular season last year and led Florida State into the inaugural College Football Playoff.
