Hall of Famer Warren Sapp won’t return to Colorado

Warren Sapp is leaving his post on fellow Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders' coaching staff at Colorado, the university announced.

Sapp has spent the past two seasons with the Buffaloes, most recently as a pass rush coordinator.

"Warren Sapp has resigned from the CU football coaching staff to pursue other opportunities," the university said in a statement. "CU Athletics thanks Warren for his contributions to our football program over the last two seasons and for his commitment to our student-athletes."

Sapp, 53, is the second member of the coaching staff to depart from the school this week. Defensive coordinator Robert Livingston accepted an NFL position with the Broncos, with ESPN reporting that he'll serve as Denver's defensive passing game coordinator and primary defensive backs coach.

ESPN reported linebackers coach Chris Marve will replace Livingston as the Buffaloes' defensive coordinator.
