According to ESPN’s lead NFL insider, Adam Schefter, Webb recognized the signals indicating he was not the primary choice for the Raiders. With growing speculation about Kubiak, Webb opted to remove himself from the running to avoid being seen as a backup option.

Webb Becomes Hot Offensive Coordinator Candidate

With Webb stepping back from the Raiders’ head coach search, he is now one of the most sought-after names for offensive coordinator positions across the league. Multiple teams have shown interest, including:

Baltimore Ravens
New York Giants
Philadelphia Eagles

The Eagles have already filled their offensive coordinator role, but the Ravens and Giants are still in pursuit of new candidates. Additionally, the Broncos are eager to promote Webb to their offensive coordinator following the firing of Joe Lombardi.

Potential Opportunities for Webb

Webb’s impressive performance in interviews has garnered attention, showcasing his potential as an emerging coach. Although the Broncos now seek a replacement for Lombardi, it is likely they will prioritize hiring Webb for that role.

This opportunity would allow Webb to gain invaluable experience working under head coach Sean Payton. While he may not call the plays, collaborating closely with Payton during games would enhance his coaching skills and strategic understanding.

Future Prospects

Although there is a strong possibility that Webb will return to the Broncos as their offensive coordinator, other teams are prepared to offer him enticing play-calling opportunities. The unfolding situation is expected to develop over the coming days, highlighting Webb’s increasing significance in the NFL coaching landscape.
