The changes to the Broncos’ offensive coaching staff continue.
After moving on from Rich Scangarello, Denver hired former Giants head coach Pat Shurmur to be their new offensive coordinator. It appears that Shurmur now plans to bring in his own quarterbacks coach.
The Broncos have fired quarterbacks coach T.C. McCartney, according to multiple media reports. Benjamin Allbright of KOA Radio was the first to report the news of McCartney’s firing on Wednesday.
McCartney played QB at LSU and went on to serve as an assistant coach with the University of Colorado and LSU before making the jump to the NFL, spending time with the Browns and 49ers.
McCartney spent three seasons in San Francisco before following Scangarello to Denver last year. He helped groom rookie Drew Lock in 2019 and the quarterback won four of his five games as a starter.
After firing McCartney, the Broncos may target former New York QBs coach/offensive coordinator Mike Shula. Shula’s familiarity with Shurmur likely makes him the favorite to replace McCartney in Denver.
