From the Denver Post:

Broncos to interview Bills RB coach
By MIKE KLIS

Broncos coach Josh McDaniels has formally asked permission from the Buffalo Bills to interview their running game coordinator/running backs coach Eric Studesville.

Even though the Bills recently released their entire coaching staff, many assistants like Studesville are still under contract with the Bills and permission is still needed to interview.

Studesville would become only the Broncos’ second running backs coach in 16 years _ Bobby Turner, the Broncos’ running backs coach for the previous 15 seasons, recently left to become associate head coach for the Washington Redskins and head coach Mike Shanahan.

Prior to his six seasons with the Bills, Studesville was the New York Giants’ running backs’ coach from 2001-03. His 1,000-yard runners include Tiki Barber, Willis McGahee, Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson, who has developed from an undrafted rookie from Division III Coe in 2003. Jackson spent two years playing in indoor football leagues, and a third year in NFL Europa before getting his chance with the Bills in 2007.

From article:

Someone needs to explain this to me - he was released - i.e. - no longer employed by the Bills - BUT he is still under contract with the Bills, and therefore permission is still needed to interview???????? Should the Bills releasing him, not make the contract null and void??????????

[T.K.O.]

cant go wrong with a guy named " STUDesville":beer:

[Lonestar]

I'm sure while he was released that he is still being paid by BUF until his contract is over. Most of which run march to march IIRC.

I'd also guess that BUF would perfer to have him in another team outside their division if they can help it.
