The Denver Broncos have officially announced they are parting ways with offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi, wide receivers coach Keary Colbert, and cornerbacks coach Addison Lynch, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.
The decision to move on from Lombardi comes as the organization begins a significant restructuring of its coaching staff. Lombardi, who has extensive experience as an offensive coordinator with the Detroit Lions and Los Angeles Chargers, joined the Broncos to work alongside head coach Sean Payton. However, the team has decided to head in a different direction offensively following the conclusion of their campaign.
In addition to the leadership change on offense, the departures of Keary Colbert and Addison Lynch indicate a broader overhaul of the positional coaching ranks. Colbert oversaw the wide receivers during his tenure, while Lynch served as a key assistant within the defensive secondary. These moves suggest the Broncos are looking for fresh perspectives on both sides of the ball as they prepare for the upcoming league year.
The Broncos organization has not yet released a statement regarding potential candidates to fill these high-level coaching vacancies. Further changes to the staff may be announced as the offseason progresses.
