The Broncos found Wade Phillips' successor in a familiar face. Joe Woods, the team's secondary coach the past two years, was reportedly promoted to defensive coordinator to replace Phillips, who landed with the Rams after the Broncos chose not to renew his contract.

The plan to promote Woods was originally reported earlier this month by Sporting News' Alex Marvez. And on Sunday, The Denver Post's Nicki Jhabvala reported that Woods will be named defensive coordinator under new head coach Vance Joseph, who also has a defensive background.
