Here are some excerpts from an article about him leaving the Browns for 3 weeks to be DC for his bro in 2022 at ole miss. He changed his mind and got his job back. Let’s not pretend he would come here and kill it in recruiting when his heart isn’t in it. I think his goal is to be a NFL DC but who knows if he gets that shot. He’s young so he could wait until his kids got older to go to college but I think he wants to stay in the nfl. Let’s not forget he has only been a Dc for one year and it wasn’t power 5 (FAU).
