DENVER (AP) — Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffaloes are closing in on adding Cincinnati Bengals secondary coach Robert Livingston as defensive coordinator, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the team has not finalized the hiring.

Livingston would step in for Charles Kelly, who's now in a similar role at Auburn. Livingston is set to inherit a Colorado defense that surrendered 34.8 points and 453.3 yards per game in Sanders' first season in charge.

Livingston started as a scout with the Bengals in 2012 before later joining their coaching staff. He's spent the last six seasons working with the safeties.
