Mike Klis of 9 News reports that the Broncos are interviewing Bears DBs coach Ed Donatell for their defensive coordinator job on Tuesday.

Donatell has been linked to the Broncos for a few weeks now, so it wouldn’t come as much of a surprise to see him joining Vic Fangio’s staff.

Chicago actually interviewed Donatell for their defensive coordinator job before hiring Chuck Pagano last Friday.

Donatell, 61, began his coaching career back in 1979 as a graduate assistant at Kent State. He took his first NFL coaching job with the Jets in 1990 when they hired as their secondary coach.

From there, Donatell worked for a number of teams including the Broncos, Packers, Falcons, Jets, and 49ers before the Bears hired him as their DBs coach for the 2015 season.
