After losing Trent Dilfer to the University of UAB, Lipscomb Academy in Nashville is looking at another former NFL player as his replacement. John Brice of Footballscoop reports Lipscomb is targeting Jason Witten as the team’s next coach.
The move isn’t official yet, as the school is reportedly flying Witten to Nashville with the intent to convince him to take the job.
Witten spent 17 seasons in the NFL, the first 16 with the Cowboys before his final season with the Raiders. He also spent the 2018 years as an analyst on ESPN’s Monday Night Football, before returning to the NFL for two more years.
