The Denver Broncos want to interview Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn for their head coaching vacancy.


Dan Quinn has been one of the reasons that the Seattle Seahawks have created a dominant defense, and he is starting to get looks as a potential head coaching candidate. The Denver Broncos mutually decided to part ways with John Fox earlier on Monday afternoon, and they appear to be one of the teams that are showing the most interest in Quinn.

According to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Broncos would like to speak with Quinn about their head coaching position.

Peyton Manning is another member of the Broncos that could end up leaving this offseason. He played the entire game against the Indianapolis Colts with a torn right quad, and he will have to decide whether or not his body can hold up for another NFL season.

That being said, the Broncos have a very strong defense of their own. Quinn would likely be more than happy to make the move from Seattle with the roster that Denver has put together. Seattle is a great team and he is a key piece there, but the fact of the matter is that Pete Carroll will not be going anywhere anytime soon.

There is going to be plenty of interest in Quinn before the process is completed and he decides what to do next with his career. Plenty of head coaching opportunities are still available, and he is a good enough candidate that he will have his choice of where to go.

Quinn makes a lot of sense for the Broncos, and he would be an ideal hire for them if they can convince him to accept the job.
