The Denver Broncos are hiring Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett to be the team's new head coach.

Hackett was scheduled to interview with the Jaguars on Thursday, but the Broncos stepped in Wednesday night to get a deal done to prevent him from going to Jacksonville.

Hackett becomes the team's fourth different coach since the start of the 2016 season. 

The Broncos have previously been linked with Aaron Rodgers, which could intensify given his connections to Hackett. 

The Denver Broncos have narrowed their head coaching search to three candidates after interviewing 10.

Cowboys’ defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett – plus a darkhorse candidate, Rams offensive coordinator Kevin O'Connell, remain as candidates.

The Broncos fired Vic Fangio after three seasons.

With the Philadelphia Eagles eliminated from the playoffs, Jonathan Gannon has lined up interviews for several NFL head coaching vacancies.

According to a report, Gannon has interviews with the Houston Texans (Tuesday), Denver Broncos (Wednesday) and Minnesota Vikings (Thursday) scheduled.

Gannon was hired as Philadelphia's defensive coordinator under Nick Sirianni before the 2021 season.

Dan Quinn will interview for the head coaching position of the Denver Broncos on Tuesday.

Quinn is currently the defensive coordinator of the Dallas Cowboys.

Quinn has three more interviews later this week and is considered one of the more sought after candidates of this cycle.

Quinn was previously head coach of the Atlanta Falcons.

The Denver Broncos could soon end up with a new owner.

A Denver judge ruled that no right of first refusal applies to any potential sale of the franchise Tuesday, making a sale of the franchise suddenly less complicated.

Judge Shelly I. Gilman concluded that "the right of first refusal ... between Edgar F. Kaiser, Jr. and Patrick D. Bowlen ... is no longer valid or enforceable in any respect."

Kaiser sold the team to Bowlen in 1984. Kaiser’s estate argued that a right of first refusal from the original sales contract still applies, meaning that Kaiser’s estate would have had the ability to match any offer to buy the Broncos.

The Denver Broncos have fired Vic Fangio after a 7-10 finish. The Broncos have now missed the playoffs for six straight seasons. 

"For the last three seasons, Vic has put his heart and soul into coaching the Broncos," CEO Joe Ellis said in a statement. "I want to thank Coach Fangio for giving his maximum effort to our organization since the day he was hired.

"George will have full authority to select the next head coach of the Broncos. This is his decision and his program. I have complete confidence in George's ability to lead an exhaustive and successful head coaching search.

"We will give George every available resource and fully support him in hiring the very best head coach to lead the Broncos."

The Broncos fired Vance Joseph as head coach after the 2018 season.

The future of Vic Fangio as head coach of the Denver Broncos is uncertain entering the offseason.

Fangio met with George Paton in recent days to present his plans and make his case to stay for a fourth season as head coach.

Multiple sources not connected to the Broncos believe they will eventually part ways with Fangio. 

Paton, who is in his first year as general manager of the Broncos, will have the ultimate authority on the decision.

Dan Reeves has passed away at his home in Atlanta at the age of 77.

Reeves is one of only 10 coaches to have won at least 190 regular-season games in his career, and he guided two teams to the Super Bowl. 

"The Denver Broncos are deeply saddened by the loss of legendary Head Coach Dan Reeves," the Broncos said in a statement. "... One of the winningest coaches in NFL history, Coach Reeves set the foundation for the Broncos' decade of dominance in the 1980s and championship tradition for years to come."
