A couple of weeks ago it was being reported that former Georgia Bulldog quarterback Joe Cox would be taking over as the tight end coach for the Alabama Crimson Tide.
On Monday, Alabama made the hiring official. Cox spent the 2021 season as the tight end coach for the Charlotte 49ers. His previous stops as a college coach include South Carolina and Colorado State. Cox has coached both the wide receiver and tight end position groups during his brief coaching career.
Before his coaching career began, Cox was a quarterback in Athens from 2005 to 2009.
Alabama made the hiring official via Twitter earlier on Monday.
