There’s a decent chance the Broncos will be looking for a new defensive coordinator.
Jack Del Rio will interview Tuesday with the Oakland Raiders, according to an NFL source.
It’s Del Rio’s second interview with the team. His first with Raiders owner Mark Davis was Sunday, Jan. 4 in the Denver area.
Del Rio had been considered the leading candidate for the Raiders’ head job and now that the Broncos have been eliminated from the postseason. The Broncos lost to the Indianapolis Colts, 24-13 on Sunday in a second-round AFC playoff game.
Del Rio’s Denver defense ranked No. 3 in the league this season. He was previously a head coach for nine seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars, posting a 68-71 record.
Del Rio, 51, grew up in the East Bay town of Hayward, Calif., which is about 15 miles from Oakland.
