Former Broncos guard Chris Kuper has been hired by the Dolphins as their offensive quality control coach, reuniting him with former offensive coordinator Adam Gase.
Kuper, a 2006 fifth-round draft pick by the Broncos, retired in March 2014 after eight seasons. A starter since 2007, Kuper sustained a string of injuries later in his career, including a dislocated ankle that required multiple surgeries and never fully healed.
Kuper, 33, stayed in Colorado after retiring and returned to the sidelines as a coach at Columbine High. He also teamed with former Nugget Chauncey Billups and former Bronco Brandon Stokley to open a D1 Sports Training complex in Highlands Ranch, and joined Boulder start-up Black Lab Sports as a managing partner.
