Football coach who prayed on field resigns after Supreme Court victory, cites family and advocacy

Coach Joe Kennedy resigned from his position at a Washington state high school after a recent Supreme Court ruling allowed him to pray on the field.
Kennedy cited caring for an ailing family member and continuing to advocate for religious freedom as reasons for resigning.
The school district confirmed Kennedy's resignation pending board approval but declined further comment.
Kennedy lost his coaching job in 2015 for praying publicly after games, sparking a legal battle that reached the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court ruled in June that the school district violated Kennedy's rights by restricting his prayer.
