Saturday was not Gregg Williams' greatest moment as a coach, as the Saints defensive coordinator saw his unit allow 41 points in a shocking playoff loss to the Seahawks. A few days later, Williams decided to return to New Orleans to help the team improve.
Williams has taken his name out of the running for the Broncos' head-coaching job, according to multiple sources. Denver was scheduled to meet with him on Wednesday.
Former Panthers head coach John Fox, Texans offensive coordinator Rick Dennison and Jaguars offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter also have interviews lined up this week with the Broncos.
