Moving in

Hardegree was with the Tennessee Titans as their QBs coach during the 2024 and 2025 campaigns and took over play-calling duties from former head coach Brian Callahan early this past season. He is a 13-year NFL coaching veteran with numerous previous stops throughout his career.

His run at the professional level began as an offensive quality control coach with the Denver Broncos in 2014 before he moved to the Chicago Bears, where he served as an offensive assistant coach in 2015. Hardegree then spent three seasons with the Dolphins as their QBs coach from 2016 to 2018 before taking a job with the New York Jets as an offensive assistant in 2019 and 2020. He was a quality control coach for the New England Patriots in 2021, then the Las Vegas Raiders’ QBs coach from 2022 to 2023, a stint which included a brief period as the team's interim offensive coordinator.

After Hardegree assumed play-calling duties for the Titans in 2025, the team averaged 16.6 points per game. Quarterbacks he has worked with throughout his career as a QBs coach include Will Levis, Aidan O'Connell, Derek Carr, Ryan Tannehill and Jay Cutler.
