Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett hires Jerry Rosburg to help with game decisions

Denver Broncos rookie head coach Nathaniel Hackett has struggled to manage both play calling and game management through his first two games with the Broncos.

Hackett has admitted his mistakes. Now he’s taking action to help fix them.

Hackett has hired Jerry Rosburg as a senior assistant, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Rosburg will “help him with gameday decisions,” Schefter tweeted on Saturday.

Before joining the Broncos, the 66-year-old Rosburg spent time with three other NFL teams, most recently with the Baltimore Ravens (2008–2018). He was an assistant head coach and special teams coordinator in Baltimore.

Before breaking into the NFL as special teams coordinator, Rosburg coached at Notre Dame and Boston College.

Rosburg will make his Denver debut when the Broncos host the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football this evening. He will be in the team’s coaches’ booth and will be available to assist Hackett on a headset.
