Longtime college coach Willie Taggart joins Ravens' staff
The Baltimore Ravens have hired longtime college coach Willie Taggart to oversee their running backs, the team announced Wednesday.
Taggart is the former head coach at Florida State, Oregon, Western Kentucky, South Florida and Florida Atlantic, which he led for the past three seasons before being fired in November. He had been set to join Colorado's staff under coach Deion Sanders but instead will take on an NFL job for the first time.
Taggart will take over for Craig Ver Steeg, who has coached the Ravens' running backs for the past three seasons. Ver Steeg, who has been on the Ravens' staff since John Harbaugh's first season in Baltimore in 2008, could get reassigned to a different role.
