"That process will be expedited, according to Hafley, as he made some outside interview rounds Friday. "I think we'll see in the next day or two who the coordinator is," Hafley said on the Rich Eisen Show on Friday. "We're just kind of piecing that together and then, hopefully by the weekend, we'll have all three coordinators in. I feel like we're close. I'll call the defense, but I'll still have a defensive coordinator.""
"Hafley mentioned an appreciation for offensive influences he has had in his NFL coaching career from Packers coach Matt LaFleur, 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan and Vikings coach Kevin O'Connell, which shouldn't mark any big shift in philosophy from the offense run under ex-coach Mike McDaniel. He wants to excel in the run game and have play action off of that to help with the pass."
Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan prioritized hiring coordinators for offense, defense and special teams immediately after their introductions. Hafley plans to call defensive plays but wants a defensive coordinator to work with him and needs an offensive play-caller to run the offense. He conducted outside interviews and expects to name all three coordinators within days, possibly by the weekend. Hafley cited offensive influences Matt LaFleur, Kyle Shanahan and Kevin O'Connell and emphasized a strong running game with play-action to support the pass. Reported offensive candidates include Jerrod Johnson, Adam Stenavich, Sean Mannion, Steve Shimko and Brian Angelichio.
