Ray Lewis Reportedly Considered for Florida Atlantic Head Coaching Role

The Hall of Fame linebacker is rumored as a candidate, though conflicting reports suggest his hiring is unlikely.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Ray Lewis as a potential candidate for the Florida Atlantic University (FAU) head coaching job after Tom Herman's dismissal on Monday.
Lewis, 49, has no prior coaching experience but is seen by some as a motivational figure who could follow a path similar to Deion Sanders' success at Colorado.
Conflicting reports, including from CBS Sports and Yahoo Sports, suggest Lewis is unlikely to be hired or that no formal communication has occurred between Lewis and FAU.
FAU fired Tom Herman after a 6-16 record over two seasons, including an 0-6 conference record this year, and is reportedly seeking a high-profile hire to rejuvenate the program.
Lewis, a Florida native and two-time Super Bowl champion, remains a legendary figure in football but has yet to transition into coaching at any level.
