The Oakland Raiders will interview Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio for a second time, according to reports Monday.

Del Rio is free to talk with any team after Denver’s 24-13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Sunday’s divisional playoff game. He has served as the Broncos’ defensive coordinator for three years.

Raiders owner Mark Davis reportedly was left with a positive impression of Del Rio after the first meeting. Del Rio, who grew up in the Bay Area, will be the first candidate to have a second interview, expected to take place Tuesday.

Del Rio, 51, was the head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars from 2003 to 2011 and had an overall record of 69-73. He twice led the Jaguars to the playoffs.

The Raiders reportedly have interviewed long-time NFL coach Mike Shanahan, Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur and Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell. Others with reported interviews include San Francisco 49ers tight ends coach Eric Mangini, Raiders interim coach Tony Sparano, Arizona Cardinals defensive coordinator Todd Bowles and Indianapolis Colts offensive coordinator Pep Hamilton.
