    Default Former Broncos QB coach Greg Knapp dies following bicycle accident

    Knapp was integral to the Broncos' success from 2013-16. He was riding his bicycle Saturday afternoon when he was involved in a collision with a vehicle.

    For the second time in 10 days, the Broncos have lost an offensive assistant coach from their 2013 team that set a still standing NFL scoring record on its way to winning the AFC Championship.

    Greg Knapp, the Broncos’ quarterbacks coach from 2013-16, passed away Thursday from injuries suffered during a collision with a vehicle while he was riding his bicycle Saturday afternoon in San Ramon, Calif.

    Knapp was 58.

    "The NFL lost not only an excellent coach, but an even better person today,'' said Joe DeCamillis, the Los Angeles Rams and former Broncos' special teams coordinator. "In our business there are very few genuine, compassionate, kind people. Knapper was one of them. RIP my friend!"

    Sad. Sounds like less of a bicycle accident and more of a car crashing into him because drivers are dumb and inattentive.

    Knapp, 58, was an avid cyclist who was riding Saturday in San Ramon in Northern California when a motorist swerved into the bike lane and hit him, said his agent, Jeff Sperbeck.
