Former Florida State Tight Ends Coach Resigns From Job With Deion Sanders, Colorado

The former FSU assistant is the first coach to move on from Deion Sanders and Colorado following a tumultuous season.

With the 2023 college football regular season complete, movement is already beginning on the coaching carousel. Over the next couple of weeks and months, hundreds, if not thousands, of coaches will explore their opportunities elsewhere.

On Sunday morning, Colorado tight ends coach Tim Brewster announced that he was resigning from his role with the Buffaloes. He spent one season in Boulder after following head coach Deion Sanders from his previous job at Jackson State.

Brewster pinned a message to his social media, revealing that he was stepping down from his job at Colorado. 

"I've resigned and just want to say thank you to Prime! Just a truly amazing man and leader!! #BuffNation All [heart emoji] and wish staff players much continued success!! God Bless all!!"

The move marks Colorado's first staff change of the offseason with the team coming off a 1-7 stretch to conclude Sanders' debut year. Following a promising 3-1 start, the Buffaloes dealt with a variety of injuries, offensive ineptitude, and defensive failures that prevented them from making the postseason.

Brewster was moved to an off-field role in November when offensive coordinator Sean Lewis was demoted from his position and lost his play-calling duties to Pat Shurmur. The Buffaloes averaged 20.3 points per game in Shurmur's four games running the offense, failing to score 20 points in three of those contests.

A veteran in the coaching profession, Brewster was the tight ends coach at Florida State from 2013-17. He was on staff for the Seminoles' run to a National Championship during his first year with the program. Brewster ultimately elected to follow Jimbo Fisher to Texas A&M for one season prior to spending time with North Carolina, Florida, Jackson State, and the Buffaloes.

Outside of his time with the aforementioned programs, Brewster has also worked at the college level for Texas, Minnesota, and Mississippi State. He previously had a stint in the NFL with the then San Diego Chargers and Denver Broncos.
