Gerrard, who previously managed Rangers and Aston Villa, recently left his role at Saudi club Al-Ettifaq after 18 months.
While the prospect of him taking charge of a League Two relegation fight seems unlikely, the club’s American owners have discussed the idea.
Ex-Bolton boss Ian Evatt remains the bookmakers’ favorite, but The Mail states an approach to Gerrard has been made.
Carlisle made 12 signings in the January window before dismissing Williamson on deadline day.
