Denver Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb plans to withdraw from the Las Vegas Raiders head coaching search, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The move signals a significant shift for the young assistant as he becomes a central figure in multiple offensive coordinator searches across the league.
Per the report, Webb is currently considered a prime candidate for the Broncos' offensive coordinator position. His rapid ascent in the coaching ranks comes just one year after he retired from the NFL as a player. In addition to his standing in Denver, Webb has reportedly received several requests from other organizations to interview for their offensive coordinator openings, making him one of the most sought-after young minds in the current hiring cycle.
Before joining Sean Payton’s staff in Denver, Webb spent time as a quarterback with the New York Giants, Buffalo Bills, and New York Jets. Known for his "coach-on-the-field" reputation during his playing career, he has quickly translated that experience into a high-level coaching trajectory. His decision to pull out of the Raiders' head coaching process suggests he may be nearing a promotion to remain in Denver or a move to a play-calling role elsewhere.
