According to the Denver Post, Martindale is expected to be coach Josh McDaniels' choice.

Per the report, McDaniels also interviewed Patriots linebackers coach Matt Patricia. Patricia is a leading candidate for the Patriots' defensive coordinator spot.

Eric Studesville is the Broncos' new running backs coach, per the report.
