DeMeco Ryans anticipated to satisfy with Texans subsequent week
Maybe the dots connecting DeMeco Ryans to the Denver Broncos have been linked a bit prematurely.
Ryans, who’s believed to be a high candidate for the Broncos’ head coach opening, is anticipated to satisfy with the Houston Texans “at some point next week” after the San Francisco 49ers play within the NFC title recreation on Sunday, in line with NFL Community’s Ian Rapoport.
Rapoport additionally reported that Ryans “has emerged as a high candidate” for Houston, and there may be mutual curiosity between the coach and staff.
So, what does this imply for the Broncos?
Yesterday, KUSA-TV’s Mike Klis reported that Ryans is “a top candidate” for Denver’s head coach job, however not the one candidate. Klis additionally listed Dan Quinn, Sean Payton and Jim Caldwell as coaches nonetheless “within the combine.” (Quinn later introduced that he’ll stay with the Dallas Cowboys in 2023.)
After NFL Community reported on Friday that the Texans are anticipated to satisfy with Ryans subsequent week, Klis tweeted that the Broncos have kept in touch with all seven candidates and will not be anticipated to “restrict their focus solely on Ryans as course of continues.”
Rapoport additionally tweeted that Denver has “continued conversations with other candidates all through the method,” and he famous that Ryans needing to satisfy with Houston subsequent week “might not align with [the] Broncos timeline.”
That reporting from Klis and Rapoport appears to recommend that Ryans-to-Denver is feeling much less doubtless than Ryans-to-Houston.
So, if Klis’ earlier report is correct, the Broncos could be right down to Sean Payton and Jim Caldwell of their head coach search. The wait continues.
