Broncos adding former University of Tennessee assistant Brian Niedermeyer to defensive staff, sources say

The Broncos’ coaching staff continues to come together.

Denver head coach Sean Payton is adding former college assistant Brian Niedermeyer to the defensive side of the ball in a quality control-type role, sources confirmed to The Post on Wednesday afternoon.

Niedermeyer most recently had been named the head coach at Tuscaloosa County High School in Alabama, but has years of experience working as a high-level college assistant. The Broncos job will be the 36-year-old Niedermeyer’s first coaching stint in the NFL.

Niedermeyer spent time as a graduate assistant at both Alabama and Georgia before landing on staff at Tennessee in 2018.
