Sources: Rees headed back to Notre Dame as coach

Tommy Rees is set to return to Notre Dame. Multiple sources tell Inside the Irish that Rees is poised to join Brian Kelly’s rebuilt coaching staff. He will work with the quarterbacks, though his formal role is still being finalized.

After working as an offensive assistant under Mike McCoy with the San Diego Chargers this year and beginning his coaching career with Pat Fitzgerald as a graduate assistant at Northwestern, Rees, Kelly’s longest-tenured starting quarterback, will now be asked to coach the very same position, tutoring Brandon Wimbush and a depth chart with zero starting experience.
