Head coaching candidate Jim Caldwell is refuting a report that he turned down requests for job interviews with the Minnesota Vikings and Las Vegas Raiders. On Saturday morning, the former Detroit Lions and Indianapolis Colts head coach went on social media to set the record straight.
“I would like to correct an erroneous report that I turned down opportunities to interview for the head coaching job with Minnesota and Las Vegas. Those reports are not true,” wrote Caldwell. “I have profound respect for both organizations and for the Wilf and Davis families and I did not decline any opportunity to interview with them.”
