Should Ravens be worried about losing Gary Kubiak to Denver?

A day after Gary Kubiak announced he's remaining the offensive coordinator of the Baltimore Ravens, his long-time friend John Elway is now looking for a head coach for the Denver Broncos.

Should the Ravens be worried about Kubiak changing his mind and joining Elway in Denver?

A team source said the development with the Broncos doesn't alter Kubiak's commitment to the Ravens. He will run the Ravens' offense in 2015.

Minutes after ESPN's Adam Schefter broke the news that John Fox and the Broncos had mutually parted ways, the top two names that burned up social media were Kubiak and Mike Shanahan.

The speculation stems from Kubiak's close relationship with Elway, the general manager and executive vice president of the Broncos. In Denver, Kubiak spent nine years (1983-98) as Elway's backup and four seasons (1995-98) as his offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.

Even some Ravens players expressed concern. Wide receiver Torrey Smith replied to Schefter's tweet with two words: "Uh Oh."

Of course, you would've expected such close friends to talk about the possibility of such a move happening before Kubiak put out a statement and Elway made a change at head coach.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh will likely address Kubiak at his 2 p.m. ET news conference Tuesday.
