BALTIMORE — Wisconsin has hired Ravens tight ends coach Bobby Engram as its offensive coordinator, the school announced Saturday, leaving John Harbaugh with an opening on his offensive coaching staff.
Engram, who’d coached in Baltimore since 2014, had been connected to the Badgers’ opening for several weeks. Engram replaces Joe Rudolph, who left the Badgers’ staff this offseason for a position on Virginia Tech’s staff. Head coach Paul Chryst called plays on offense last season for Wisconsin, which went 9-4.
Engram, 49, who starred at Penn State before playing 14 seasons in the NFL, has a son who plays for the Badgers. Cornerback Dean Engram, a Columbia native, just completed his third season in Madison.
