Report: Steelers OL coach Munchak joining Broncos
Steelers offensive line coach Mike Munchak is on the verge of taking the same position with the Denver Broncos, according to reports.
If Munchak joins the Broncos, the franchise will have lured its two finalists for the vacancy at head coach, which went to Bears defensive coordinator Vic Fangio. Munchak would likely be given a senior title, such as assistant head coach, according to reports.
Munchak's contract with the Steelers expired at the end of the season.
Until Friday, it was presumed former Broncos quarterback and head coach Gary Kubiak was set to shift from the front office to oversee the Broncos' offense. But the two sides split over a difference of philosophy.
Munchak has three years of head-coaching experience, going 22-26 from 2011 to 2013 with the Tennessee Titans. He could have stayed with the team longer but was fired when he declined to make changes to his staff. He has spent the past five years in his current position in Pittsburgh after spending the first 20 years of his coaching career with the Titans/Houston Oilers franchise.
