Titans Request Interview With Broncos DC Vance Joseph for Head-Coach Vacancy

Denver’s elite defensive turnaround has put Joseph in demand this hiring cycle.

Overview

  • NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported the Titans’ formal request, the first publicly known interview move for Joseph this cycle.
  • NFL rules allow virtual interviews during Denver’s playoff bye after the Broncos secured the AFC’s No. 1 seed.
  • Joseph’s unit led the league in sacks in back-to-back seasons and finished near the top in yards and points allowed in 2025.
  • Other head-coach openings include the Giants, Falcons and Browns, and Tennessee also requested to interview Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy after firing Brian Callahan in October.
  • If Joseph is hired, Denver would receive two third-round compensatory picks, with Jim Leonhard seen as the leading internal successor and quarterbacks coach Davis Webb attracting outside interest.
