How would they know they could come to terms or that Quinn wanted to sign there unless they've already been talking?

Dan Quinn did pick Kyle Shanahan to be his offensive coordinator.

Dan Quinn already interviewed with them once. He will have another interview with the Falcons tomorrow.

Second interviews are allowed until January 25. The Broncos would have had to wait for a first interview.
