Broncos won’t be hiring Raheem Morris as their head coach

The Broncos have informed Raheem Morris that they’re going in a different direction as they search for a new head coach

Raheem Morris is one of the favorites to land the Indianapolis Colts’ head coaching job, but the team is still working through its list of candidates. While that opportunity hangs in the balance, we know where Morris won’t be heading: Denver.

According to NFL.com, the Broncos have informed Morris, David Shaw, Jim Caldwell and Ejiro Evero that they’re going in a different direction with their head coaching search. Denver had a second meeting with Jim Harbaugh recently, so he could be their top target.

Rams DC Raheem Morris, former Stanford coach David Shaw, former Lions and Colts coach Jim Caldwell and Broncos DC Ejiro Evero interviewed for the job, but all were told this week the team was going another direction.

Morris was in the running for the Vikings’ job last year before they hired Kevin O’Connell, and he could still be hired by the Colts this offseason, so he’s clearly become one of the top candidates in the league lately. But if he doesn’t get a head coaching gig this year, the Rams will be thrilled to have him back in Los Angeles.
