One coaching vacancy is filled.
The Broncos on Wednesday hired former University of Texas-El Paso head coach Sean Kugler to coach their offensive line, an NFL source confirmed.
Kugler, a New York native, has coached at the college and professional level for 24 years and served as the offensive line coach at Boise State in 2006 when former Bronco Ryan Clady starred at tackle. Boise State, coached by Chris Petersen that year, went 13-0 and defeated Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl.
Kugler was succeeded at Boise State by Chris Strausser, who coached Broncos center Matt Paradis in college and was hired last year as Denver’s assistant offensive line coach.
