Broncos Briefs: Wade Harman hired as TE coach; Zach Azzanni, Curtis Modkins set to return

The Broncos continued reshaping their staff of assistant coaches Thursday by hiring Wade Harman as tight ends coach.

Harman, 55, has been in the NFL since 1997 and was most recently the Atlanta Falcons’ tight ends coach. In 2015, he was on the same staff as new Broncos offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello.

Harman replaces Geep Chryst, who was with the Broncos for two years.

Also, receivers coach Zach Azzanni and running backs coach Curtis Modkins are expected to return after joining the Broncos last year, according to a league source.

Harman spent two years with Minnesota (coaching assistant) and 15 years with Baltimore (tight ends coach) before joining the Falcons as offensive line coach for one year and then tight ends coach for four years.
