Is there any sort of connection? He looks firmly entrenched in the NFL.

Career NFL guy, that be a big selling point with the players. Not sure if he is interested in college ball but its worth a shot. He might want to come home to end his career.

He may be great, but I think a lot of that stat was the dominance of Wing and guys like Tyran and Brooks on coverage.
