Broncos coaching staff changes already underway for Vance Joseph

Not even 12 hours after the Denver Broncos formally introduced Vance Joseph as their 16th head coach, the coaching staff is already seeing significant turnover.

Within a span of about an hour on Thursday night, the following news broke…

Offensive line coach Clancy Barone and the Broncos mutually agreed to part ways.

Barone’s unit struggled throughout the 2015 and ’16 seasons, prompting the change.

Wade Phillips accepted a job with the Los Angeles Rams as defensive coordinator…

Phillips’ contract expired on Feb. 1 and he was not expected to be retained.

The team meanwhile was working on a deal to bring Mike McCoy back to Denver as offensive coordinator…
