Is It Shanny?
January 23, 2009 - Bob Gretz |

You gotta love this.

ESPN’s Chris Mortensen is reporting that the Chiefs are in final stages of negotiations with former Denver head coach Mike Shanahan to replace Herm Edwards as head coach. Mortensen said Friday evening on Sports Center that the negotiations have started up between the team and Shanahan in the last 24 hours.

But ESPN.com’s story on the matter filed after the TV report puts a slightly different spin on the situation. The story has reporting from Mortensen, but was not written by him says:

“Once source claims there have been negotiations with Shanahan and that a deal was near but another said Chiefs owner Clark Hunt has targeted Shanahan without a clear-cut result.”

Adam Schefter of the NFL Network and a guy who jumped to the league outlet after covering the Broncos in Denver, reports that there have been no negotiations between Shanahan and the Chiefs.

Here’s what Schefter posted on NFL.com:

“Despite rampant reports that the Chiefs are negotiating with former Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan to replace Herm Edwards, they are not, sources said Friday. The Chiefs never have made any contact with Shanahan — never. And there have been no contract negotiations.

“So unless people I have known for years are blatantly lying to me, Shanahan will not be the next coach of the Chiefs. It’s not happening. People can keep talking as if it is, but it’s not. Shanahan will not be the coach of the Chiefs in 2009.”

Shanahan spoke to former Chiefs defensive coordinator Gunther Cunningham from a golf course in Cabo San Lucas in Mexico on Thursday.

The Chiefs had nothing to say Friday afternoon on a replacement for Edwards.

So, this will be interesting to see which one of the big-time NFL information guys has it right, and which one has it wrong.
