With the Senior Bowl set to take place on February 4, the coaches have been confirmed for the match with a new “coach up” format being debuted this year.
For those that aren’t aware, the Senior Bowl is a post-season college football all-star game played annually which showcases the best NFL Draft prospects of those players have completed their college eligibility.
With the new format being highlighted this year, the Senior Bowl traditionally used whole coaching staffs of non-playoff teams, however this year they’ve introduced a new “coach up” format in an effort to promote young coaching talent in the NFL.
First time that coaching staffs from two NFL clubs won’t be taking over the Senior Bowl teams. New format to promote professional development allows assistants from a variety of teams to coach up a level. https://t.co/acUdcTkeKf
