ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) – Jack Del Rio considered sitting out the
2012 season, relaxing while still drawing a paycheck from the
Jacksonville Jaguars, who fired him as head coach in November.
Instead, Del Rio jumped right back into the NFL fray, replacing
Dennis Allen as Denver’s defensive coordinator.
Del Rio’s hiring reunites Broncos coach John Fox with his first
defensive coordinator from Carolina.
Del Rio said Monday he’s energized after spending the last
couple of months away from football. He went 69-73 in eight and
a-half seasons with the Jaguars, including 1-2 in the playoffs.
ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) – Dennis Allen preached passion and
discipline as he was formally introduced as the new head coach of
the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders held a news conference for Allen on Monday and those two themes were repeated often by the first-time head coach. Oakland hired the 39-year-old Allen last week to replace Hue
Jackson, who was fired after going 8-8 in his only season as head
coach. New general manager Reggie McKenzie said he was targeting Allen
from the outset of his search and was extremely impressed by his
two interviews.
