Back to the Alabama Crimson Tide Newsfeed

Alabama staff assistant possibly heading back to NFL soon

He spent four seasons at the University of Alabama as the director of football operations and served as running backs coach in 2018, but it appears as though Joe Pannunzio may potentially be on the move in the near future.

According to a report from AL.com, the 59-year-old is considering a return to the National Football League and it may be with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was the director of player operations for the Eagles from 2015-16, before rejoining the Crimson Tide in 2017.

While he coached tight ends and special teams for the Tide in 2017, Pannunzio balanced the production of its back last season.
