Source-derived summary

Bush Hamdan (born February 10, 1986) is an American professional football coach and former quarterback who is currently the quarterbacks coach for the Miami Dolphins of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Boise State, but never played professionally. He previously held multiple offensive coaching positions at various colleges, with his last position being the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at the University of Kentucky.

Playing career

Hamdan was a quarterback at Boise State from 2004 to 2008. He graduated from Boise State in 2008 with a degree in communications.

Coaching career

After his playing career ended, he joined the coaching staff at Colorado in 2009 as a student assistant. He also had stints at Maryland, Sacramento State, and Florida before his first coordinator job.

He was named the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Arkansas State in 2013, reuniting with his offensive coordinator and position coach in college, Bryan Harsin. He was not one of the assistants brought over to Boise State when Harsin was named the head coach of the program in 2014, and instead accepted a position as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Davidson College in 2014.

Hamdan joined the coaching staff at Washington in 2015 as a quality control coach before being promoted to wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator in 2016.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q100279984. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1986, 2004, 2008 and 2009.

Critical limits

The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
