## Resource

Will Grier, the 31-year-old ex-NFL quarterback who just retired, is back in the league — this time as an offensive assistant for the Dallas Cowboys. After turning down a coaching offer earlier this year, Grier’s return comes with a twist: he’s not just stepping away from the game, he’s stepping into it from the sidelines. With two prior stints in Dallas and a career that saw him bounce between teams like the Panthers, Bengals, Chargers, Patriots, and Eagles, Grier’s journeyman path didn’t always shine — but he did flash brilliance, including a standout preseason game against the Raiders. Now, with his offensive IQ praised and a strong rapport with Dak Prescott, Grier’s coaching potential is being seriously considered. His playing days may be over, but his impact on the Cowboys’ offense is just beginning. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
