In a deal that was waiting on the Super Bowl and some of the contract machinations that come with a job change, the Denver Broncos on Friday announced the hiring of Darren Rizzi as special teams coordinator/assistant head coach.

The Denver Broncos have added to their coaching staff. Head coach Sean Payton has hired Darren Rizzi as the team's new special teams coordinator according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The pair worked together for two seasons when Payton was head coach of the Saints before a short-lived retirement.
