Broncos Hire Justin Outten As Offensive Coordinator
3 years agoThe Denver Broncos hired former Green Bay Packers tight ends coach Justin Outten as their offensive coordinator on Wednesday, according to a source. The Broncos also hired former Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak as the quarterbacks coach/passing-game coordinator and Butch Barry as offensive line coach. Barry was the assistant offensive line coach for the San Francisco 49ers in 2021. Head coach Nathaniel Hackett will call plays, but he, Outten and Kubiak will all have their hand in trying to fix the Broncos offense moving forward. Denver's offense hasn't averaged more than 23 points a game since 2014 and haven't averaged more than 21 points a game since 2015. Quarterback Teddy Bridgewater is a free agent, and the Broncos must find a capable QB first and foremost.
