Wade Phillips never really got his proper Broncos goodbye.

Caught between Gary Kubiak’s surprise retirement announcement and the hiring of former Phillips assistant Vance Joseph as the Broncos’ head coach, Phillips was suddenly on the market looking for a new defensive coordinator’s job.

Phillips’ exit from the Broncos to the Los Angeles Rams this offseason was puzzling for many, considering the job he did coordinating the Broncos’ defense. Denver had the NFL’s top-ranked defense in 2015 en route to a Super Bowl championship and the fourth overall-ranked defense last season. But Phillips’ contract was not renewed, and the Broncos chose to replace him with up-and-coming defensive backs coach Joe Woods.

In a recent interview, Phillips talked with The Denver Post about his departure from the Broncos, his thoughts on his successor and his new book, “Son of Bum.”

Miss, as in you expect the Broncos defense to drop off precipitously because Wade isn't there? If that's what you meant I gotta disagree.

No. I mean they are going to miss him. They will miss his smiling face, his laugh, his eyes. There will be tears.
