Broncos hire Geep Chryst as tight ends coach

Former San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Geep Chryst has himself a new job, and it looks like he’s staying away from quarterbacks and offensive playcalling. Chryst will be joining newly hired Denver Broncos head coach Vance Joseph’s staff as tight ends coach.

The name Geep Chryst brings up some icky nightmares to many San Francisco 49ers fans. Long forgotten as the rumored architect behind the Vernon post and The Catch III, the former 49ers offensive coordinator is mostly remembered for his lone season as the 49ers offensive coordinator, replacing Greg Roman and Jim Harbaugh as the main playcallers.
