Older Carolina Panthers fans should be familiar with the newest addition to head coach Frank Reich’s staff in Duce Staley. Not only was the former Philadelphia Eagles running back a force in the NFC for the better part of a decade, but he also had one of his best outings against his new employer—dashing the cats for 140 yards and a touchdown back in 1999.
But since he hung up those cleats, Staley made his transition to the sidelines beginning in 2011—as a special teams quality coach with his Eagles. The West Columbia, S.C. native stuck around on Philly’s staff for 10 seasons—where he also picked up promotions to the team’s running backs coach and assistant head coach positions.
