A four-year starter for the Broncos under head coach Dan Hawkins, he was a two-time All-WAC selection and College Football News All-American in 2004 and 2005, and was second-team in 2003 as a sophomore.[1] [2] Colledge was one of the 38 former Boise State players that have been drafted into the NFL since 2000.[3] In college, Colledge played as an offensive tackle for the Boise State Broncos.[4]

On March 8, 2014, Arizona told Colledge he would be released into free agency on Tuesday, March 11. By waiting, the Cardinals were able to spread the cap charge of releasing Colledge over a period of two years.[8]
On June 30, 2014, the Miami Dolphins acquired Daryn Colledge through free agency, signing him to a one-year contract worth $2 million.[9] [10] He got a guaranteed $250,000 at the time of his signing.[11]
