Interim Denver head coach Jerry Rosburg said Wednesday he’s glad defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero was first offered the position and admired the fact that Evero turned it down.
Evero, of course, is close friends with Nathaniel Hackett, who was fired as head coach Monday. Rosburg suggested that played into Evero’s decision to turn down the interim job.
“He’s highly qualified and he deserved the opportunity to say yes ,” Rosburg said. “He chose to say no and that’s why I’m standing here before you.”Rosburg on Wednesday also said he made the decision to fire special teams coordinator Dwayne Stukes and offensive line coach Butch Barry after Hackett was let go.
“I know special teams. I’ve been coaching special teams for a long time. We weren’t good enough,” Rosburg said. “We were 32nd in the league in one of the metrics I follow and, if I’m not mistaken, there’s 32 teams in this league. That had to change. The only way it was going to change was for me to insert myself right in the middle of that thing.”
