Former Packers lineman Evan Smith hired as new head football coach at Manitowoc Lincoln

MANITOWOC – Former Green Bay Packers offensive lineman Evan Smith has been hired for the head football coaching position at Manitowoc Lincoln.

The hiring is pending Board of Education approval Jan. 9. He will succeed Greg Enz, who was the Manitowoc head coach for five seasons and led the Ships to playoff appearances in 2019 and 2021.

“I want Manitowoc Lincoln football to be a source of pride for the school and community by building a culture of excellence,” Smith said in a release.

Smith, a 10-year NFL veteran who also played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, began working with the Ships last summer as an offensive line coach.
