Davis Webb Drawing Heavy Interest as OC and HC Interviews Heat Up
Davis Webb’s coaching stock is rising-and fast. The former quarterback-turned-coordinator has become one of the most talked-about names on the NFL coaching carousel this offseason, and for good reason. While the Denver Broncos may be eyeing a promotion for Webb internally, the 29-year-old is firmly in the mix for both head coaching and offensive coordinator roles across the league.
According to reports, Webb received three interview requests this week for offensive coordinator positions, on top of previous interviews for head coaching jobs with the Buffalo Bills and Las Vegas Raiders. The Bills have since filled their vacancy by promoting Joe Brady, but the Raiders job remains open-and Webb is still very much in play.
Let’s break down the offensive coordinator opportunities currently on the table for Webb, and why each could be a compelling next step in his young coaching career.
Philadelphia Eagles: A Loaded Offense Searching for Direction
On paper, the Eagles' offensive coordinator job looks like a dream gig. The offensive line, when healthy, is among the best in football.
Jalen Hurts is fresh off a Super Bowl MVP performance. A.J.
Brown and DeVonta Smith form one of the most explosive wide receiver tandems in the league. And Saquon Barkley, who joined the team last season, is coming off a 2,000-yard rushing campaign.
So why is this job still open?
That’s the million-dollar question. The Eagles have cast a wide net in their search, and Webb is one of several candidates they’re evaluating.
With this much firepower on offense, the right coordinator could elevate the unit back to elite status. For Webb, it would be a chance to step into a high-pressure, high-reward situation with championship aspirations from day one.
Baltimore Ravens: A New Era, A New Opportunity
The Ravens are entering a new chapter. With Jesse Minter taking over as head coach following the departure of John Harbaugh, Baltimore is now focused on building out a staff that complements Minter’s defensive background. That means finding an offensive coordinator who can maximize the talents of Lamar Jackson-no small task, but a tantalizing one for any young offensive mind.
Webb’s name has surfaced as a serious option in Baltimore, and it makes sense. Jackson is a former league MVP whose dynamic skill set demands creativity and adaptability from a play-caller. The Ravens are looking for someone who can bring a fresh perspective to the offense, and Webb’s rapid ascent through the coaching ranks suggests he could be that guy.
New York Giants: Familiar Territory, Fresh Opportunity
If there’s a job that might feel like home for Webb, it’s the one in New York.
Webb had two stints with the Giants during his playing career, and that familiarity could give him a leg up. The organization is undergoing a significant reset, with Jim Harbaugh now in the building and looking to reshape the franchise’s identity.
The current favorite for the OC position appears to be Todd Monken-if he doesn’t land the Cleveland Browns’ head coaching job. Should Monken head to Cleveland, Harbaugh may turn to Webb as a strong alternative. Given Webb’s history with the team and his growing reputation as a sharp offensive mind, it would be a logical and potentially fruitful reunion.
What’s Next for Webb?
Whether it’s as a head coach or offensive coordinator, Davis Webb is going to be coaching somewhere new-or in a new role-very soon. He’s earned a reputation as a rising star in coaching circles, and this offseason could be the one where he takes that next big leap.
For now, the Broncos will have to wait and see what happens. If Webb does move on, they’ll be losing a fast-rising talent. But if they manage to keep him in-house with a promotion, it could be a savvy move for a team looking to build something sustainable.
One thing’s clear: Davis Webb’s phone isn’t going quiet anytime soon.
