ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — Two days after Vance Joseph was hired as the Denver Broncos’ head coach in Jan. 2017, he hired his first coordinator, signing Mike McCoy to lead the team’s offense.

Eleventh months later, the rookie head coach made his first major change on his coaching staff—relieving Mike McCoy of his duties with the Broncos on Monday morning.
