Sean Payton has lost another member of his coaching staff.<\/p>\n
The Baltimore Ravens<\/a> are expected to hire Denver Broncos<\/a> passing game specialist Zack Grossi as their tight ends coach, according to a report from Matt Zenitz of CBS Sports<\/a>. He coached in Denver from 2022-2025, initially joining four years ago as an offensive quality control coach. Grossi has experience coaching tight ends from the 2024 Senior Bowl<\/a>.<\/p>\n Grossi previously worked with new Baltimore offensive coordinator Declan Doyle<\/a> from 2023-2024 with the Broncos<\/a>. He also overlapped with Joe Lombardi<\/a> (2023-2025), who is joining the Ravens<\/a> as a senior offensive assistant.<\/p>\n Grossi battled and overcame cancer in 2024 after being diagnosed with a yolk sac tumor<\/a>. He is now cancer-free.<\/p>\n Grossi is the third coach to leave Denver this offseason for a promotion elsewhere, joining Pete Carmichael and Jim Leonhard, who both landed with the Buffalo Bills<\/a>. He’s the sixth coach overall to depart the club in 2026.<\/p>\n Need a news break?
