Not too long ago, buzz about Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan getting looks as a head coach during this hiring cycle started making the rounds.
And now they’ve come to fruition.
According to Ryan O’Halloran of the Denver Post, the Denver Broncos requested permission to interview Callahan for their head-coaching vacancy.
The Broncos are doing a ton of due diligence while trying to find their next head coach. But Callahan is a natural fit — he started his pro coaching career there and was an instrumental part of the offensive coaching staff from 2010-2015.
Fast forward to now, Callahan has Joe Burrow’s superb development on his resume just as the Broncos are in a position to attempt drafting another franchise passer and placing that prospect in an offense flanked by elite pieces at the skill positions.
Even if Callahan doesn’t get a job during this cycle, it’s clear how NFL teams feel about his resume.
