The Denver Broncos wasted no time on Sunday after deciding to move on from Rich Scangarello after one season as the team’s offensive coordinator. As his replacement, the team plans to hire Pat Shurmur.

The decision to replace Scangarello came as a bit of a surprise and comes about three weeks after the Broncos’ season came to a close. The team decided that Shurmur brings something that Scangarello couldn’t and a swift move was made.

So just who is Shurmur? We have you covered here.

1. He played college football at Michigan State

Before getting into coaching, Shurmur was a player for the Michigan State Spartans.

Born in Dearborn, Michigan, he went to the school in East Lansing and played mostly as an offensive lineman but also saw time at linebacker. From his sophomore season on, he played center for the team.

In his senior season, he helped the Spartans defeat the USC Trojans to win the Rose Bowl.
