This has been reportedly shot down by Adam Schefter.
ProFootballTalk.com - Latest News and Rumors
In response to rapidly-spreading rumors (we might have had something to do with that) regarding the possibility of a former Broncos and Raiders coach landing with their common rivals in Kansas City, Adam Schefter of NFLN says that there’s no truth whatsoever to the reports/rumors/rumblings/scuttlebutt that Mike Shanahan will be the next coach of the Chiefs.
Per Schefter, the Chiefs and Shanahan have had no contact as of mid-day Thursday.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that there won’t be contact if/when Herm Edwards is fired. We assume that the Chiefs are spending more time deciding whether to keep Herm than they are lining up his potential replacement.
Especially in light of the Rooney Rule.
Unless Shanahan’s spray tan falls within the scope of the
Soul Man exception, he can’t be hired until after Edwards is fired and at least one minority candidate is interviewed.
The rumors about Gun were shot down too. Who knows what is going to happen.
