Robert "Red" Miller, who spent four seasons as head coach of the Denver Broncos, died Wednesday at the age of 89.
The Broncos announced Miller's death on their official website.
“Our deepest sympathies go out to Red’s entire family, especially his wife, Nan," Broncos president and CEO Joe Ellis said in a statement. “Red was a beloved member of the Broncos’ family. He left a great impact on this franchise by laying the foundation for our championship tradition and was so proud to be part of our first Super Bowl team 40 years ago.
