| John Fox In No Rush To Find Broncos Defensive Coordinator | | |
Broncos defensive coordinator Dennis Allen was hired as the Oakland Raiders' head coach Tuesday. "This is a great opportunity for him," Fox said. " It's happened pretty fast for him and that's good. I'm excited for him and his family." Fox said Wednesday he will not rush into finding Allen's replacement. "I don't really have a direction set, not yet," Fox said. "We'll sit down as a staff as we get away from the Senior Bowl and put a plan together." Fox was asked if Broncos linebackers coach Richard Smith, a former defensive coordinator with Houston and Miami who also was on Fox's staff in Carolina, would be a candidate. "There will be a lot of considerations and he would be one of them, but I don't like to speculate," Fox said. Fox is expected to give Del Rio a long look as well. Del Rio was in Mobile this week after being fired by the Jaguars this past November. "I guess I'd like to have someone in place some time before next season, that's the deadline," Fox said, laughing. "More than likely, we'll feel good about it when we make a move. But we'll do what think would be the best fit and we'll keep trying to make the kind of progress we want on that side of the ball."
