Ronald Curry was on Buffalo’s staff for the last two seasons, however the 46-year-old has spent a large portion of his coaching profession with Denver’s Sean Payton. After Curry and Payton worked together in Latest Orleans from 2016-21, they’re set to reunite next season. Curry is anticipated to take over because the Broncos’ wide receivers coach, Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports reports.
This may represent a task change for Curry, the Bills’ quarterbacks coach from 2024-25. Josh Allen won an MVP during that span, but it surely wasn’t enough for the Bills to retain Curry this offseason. A divisional-round loss to the Broncos convinced the Bills to fireside head coach Sean McDermott and promote offensive coordinator Joe Brady as his alternative. Curry was on Brady’s offensive staff for each years in Buffalo, and the 2 were also Saints assistants together from 2017-18.
Despite his familiarity with Curry, Brady brought in a brand new face, Bo Hardegree, as his QBs coach. A number of days before that, the Jets and Broncos interviewed Curry for his or her offensive coordinator jobs. The Jets wound up hiring Frank Reich, while the Broncos made the slam-dunk decision to advertise Davis Webb from QBs coach/pass-game coordinator.
The Broncos at the moment are poised so as to add an experienced Payton assistant and a former NFL receiver to Webb’s offensive staff. Curry, a former basketball player and QB at North Carolina, was a Raiders wideout who hit the 50-catch mark thrice from 2002-08.
Curry’s profession as an NFL coach began in 2014 as an offensive assistant in San Francisco, where he worked for 2 years. He went on to wear many hats with the Saints over eight seasons, six of which he spent with Payton. Curry was an offensive assistant for 2 years, a receivers coach for 3, a QBs coach for 3 and a pass-game coordinator for 2.
In rejoining Payton in Denver, Curry will replace fired receivers coach Keary Colbert. He’ll take charge of a bunch of wideouts featuring Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant and Marvin Mims. That’s a decent quartet, but as PFR’s Sam Robinson wrote in his Broncos Offseason Outlook, the team could still explore receiver upgrades in the approaching months.
