ENGLEWOOD: The Denver Broncos is going to hire Pats’ McDaniels, according to the reports.
McDaniels is a rising star who has spent his entire eight-year NFL coaching career in New England, where he worked his way up from personnel assistant in the scouting department to offensive coordinator for Bill Belichick.
The 32-year-old McDaniels would replace Mike Shanahan, who was fired Dec. 30 after 14 seasons with three years and $21 million left on his contract.
He’s the only one of six NFL head coaches to ever get fired by the team for which he won back-to-back Super Bowls.
