New Detroit Lions running backs coach Scottie Montgomery will have an opportunity to raise his profile as part of the NFL’s Coach Accelerator program.
When running backs coach Duce Staley left to be on the Carolina Panthers staff and to be closer to his ailing mother, the Detroit Lions landed a well-regarded replacement in Scottie Montgomery. Now, as part of the effort to help increase the diversity of candidates, Montgomery will be part of the NFL’s Coach Accelerator program.
The program will take place at next week’s league meetings in Minneapolis.
