Nebraska Head Coach Matt Rhule announced today the addition of three coaches to the Husker defensive staff. Terry Bradden has been hired as Nebraska’s defensive line coach, Phil Snow will serve in the role of associate head coach and Addison Williams will be Nebraska’s defensive backs coach.
“Terry Bradden, Phil Snow and Addison Williams are excellent additions to our coaching staff,” Rhule said. “Each of them is an ideal fit for their role on our defensive staff. They are all elite teachers who have been a part of winning programs and organizations. The experience they bring to our defensive staff will be invaluable as we defend a wide variety of offenses in the Big Ten Conference.”
Bradden will come to Nebraska from the Kansas City Chiefs where he serves as the assistant defensive line coach. The 2024 campaign is Bradden’s eighth in Kansas City and his fourth in his current role with the team, after serving as a defensive quality control coach (2018-20) and a defensive assistant (2017).
During Bradden’s time with the organization the Chiefs have captured three Super Bowl titles, including back-to-back crowns the past two seasons. This season, the Chiefs rank third in the NFL against the run and are sixth in total defense.
In 2023, Bradden assisted a defensive line that recorded 57.0 sacks to rank second in the NFL. Defensive tackle Chris Jones and defensive end George Karlaftis each recorded 10.5 sacks. The defensive line also paced the way for the Chiefs to record 55.0 sacks in 2022, which also ranked second in the league.
In addition to his defensive line work, Bradden also spent time with the defensive backfield with the Chiefs in 2019. Prior to joining the Chiefs, Bradden served as a quarterback graduate assistant at Bethune-Cookman University in 2016. He was named to the first AFCA Top 30 Under 30 class that year. Bradden spent 2014 at FAU as a special teams quality control coach and then served as head coach and athletic director in 2015 at his alma mater, Inlet Grove High School.
The Florida native played three seasons at Howard University (2009-11) in Washington, D.C., before transferring to Tuskegee University (2011-13), where he also played quarterback.
