Bieniemy is going to interview with the Broncos on Friday.
Bieniemy will meet with the Broncos in what is expected to be the last of 10 interviews currently scheduled.

The Broncos are looking for a replacement for Vic Fangio.

Several notables have already spoken with Denver, including Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, New England Patriots linebackers coach Jerod Mayo, and Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett.
Bieniemy is one of the most popular head-coaching candidates in recent years, but he has yet to be hired by a team. He interviewed with five of the six teams that had vacancies.
Andy Reid has spoken in the past about his disappointment that Bieniemy hasn't been given the opportunity to be an NFL head coach.
"Well, listen, I think he's top-notch," he told reporters. I have not seen many guys like him in my life. That is huge in this business. You will never have to worry about Eric Bieniemy off the field. He will be honest and straightforward with you, and then he knows the offense.

In Kansas City, Bieniemy has been on the coaching staff. After Matt Nagy was hired as the head coach of the Chicago Bears, he was promoted to offensive coordinator.
Kansas City has never finished lower than sixth in points per game under Bieniemy.
Fangio was fired by the Broncos after they finished the season with a 7-10 record. Fangio was the head coach for three seasons. Since winning Super Bowl 50, the organization hasn't made the playoffs.
