Arizona legend Tedy Bruschi returning as senior advisor to head coach Jedd Fisch

The greatest defensive player in Arizona Wildcats history is returning to the program.

Tedy Bruschi, UA’s career sacks leader and a centerpiece of the Desert Swarm defenses of the 1990s, has been hired as a senior advisor to head coach Jedd Fisch.

Per a UA release, Bruschi will “serve as a member of the executive football management team while serving as a consultant with the entire football staff. He will also assist the head coach in alumni relations, fundraising, social justice initiatives and student-athlete development off the field.”

Bruschi’s hiring was first hinted at by Fisch, who shared this puzzle on Twitter:
