The Broncos have now completed all requirements in their external search for a new offensive coordinator. Denver has interviewed Commanders offensive passing-game coordinator Brian Johnson for their open OC job, a source confirmed to The Denver Post Friday. With the Broncos’ previous interview of Bills quarterbacks coach Ronald Curry, Denver can now move forward with hiring any candidate under the NFL’s Rooney Rule, which mandates teams must interview at least two minority coaching candidates for coordinator roles.

Johnson, though, presents an interesting option, after working closely with Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels in his Offensive Rookie of the Year season in 2024. Previously, Johnson worked as the Eagles’ quarterbacks coach in 2021 and 2022, where he helped develop Super Bowl winner Jalen Hurts. Johnson also worked with Dak Prescott during his collegiate career at Mississippi State, where he was the Bulldogs’ QBs coach from 2014 to 2016. The Broncos’ offensive staff has undergone rapid change across the past week, as head coach Sean Payton fired offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi and receivers coach Keary Colbert Tuesday. Senior offensive assistant Pete Carmichael Jr. — a Payton loyalist dating back to New Orleans — is also leaving Denver to take the Bills’ offensive-coordinator job. Johnson’s interview is notable, too, in that he’s had no shared-staff overlap with Payton at any previous stop. And Denver now has two potential candidates for a role as a quarterbacks coach, if they do indeed promote Webb to offensive coordinator. Want more Broncos news?
