Bill Romanowski once lobbied to replace Mike Shanahan in Denver; now he might join Shanahan's staff in Washington.
Jay Glazer reports that Romanowski is interviewing in Washington to be the team's strength and conditioning coach. Seriously.
There are a ton of jokes that could be made here, but we'll leave them to the commenters.
Instead, we wonder if the NFL will have an opinion on the possible hiring of an admitted steroid user and pill enthusiast for a job that puts him in charge of the conditioning of an entire team.
The NFL has largely avoided the steroids issue that has plagued baseball, but this hiring could put it front and center. We don't doubt Romanowski knows conditioning -- he owns his own nutrition company -- but this like if the Cardinals hired Mark McGwire to run the team's weight room.
It's fair to wonder if a man that believed in the power of performance enhancers as a player, sometimes illegally, would have the same beliefs as a coach.
