The Facts:
With HC John Fox set to undergo an aortic heart valve replacement this week, the team is expected to announce his fill-in on Monday. DC Jack Del Rio will assume interim coaching duties while Fox is sidelined for "at least several weeks," according to the team.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Fox planned to undergo the procedure after the season, but the timeline shifted when the 58-year-old coach was taken to a Charlotte-area hospital on Saturday after feeling light-headed during a game of golf. Coming off a bye week, the Broncos have plenty of time to integrate Del Rio into the lead role. The former Jaguars coach spent nine seasons roaming the sideline in Jacksonville, so it's not a matter of inexperience.
