Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett will turn over play-calling duties to quarterbacks coach Klint Kubiak, according to NFL.com.
Per NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Hackett informed the team Saturday night during the team;'s meeting as part of "an impassioned and enthusiastic speech" following the team's 3-6 start. Kubiak will make his play-calling debut against the Las Vegas Raiders this Sunday.
Son of Gary Kubiak, Klint previously called plays as a member of the Minnesota Vikings offense in 2021. While Kubiak will take over play-calling duties, the role will be considered a collaborative one, working with Hackett and offensive coordinator Justin Outten and having all voices still on the headset during games.
