With John Elway taking over in Denver this week, the Broncos officially said goodbye to their last savior.
The Denver Post writes that the team has reached a termination settlement with former head coach Josh McDaniels. Adam Schefter first reported the news last week.
This news should free up McDaniels to find a job elsewhere, likely as an offensive coordinator. There has been speculation from multiple reports that McDaniels could end up in Kansas City.
The Todd Haley-McDaniels HandshakeGate may not be that big a deal, but Haley being an offensive coach seems like a bigger issue. Charlie Weis is reportedly leaving for Florida in large part because he didn’t have autonomy to run the Chiefs offense.
