Former University of Maryland head football coach D.J. Durkin has been working as a consultant for the University of Alabama's football team over the past week, according to AL.com's Matt Zenitz.
Zenitz reported that it isn't yet known if Durkin might join the program on a more permanent basis in the future.
Durkin was fired by Maryland in October shortly after his return from administrative leave stemming from an investigation into the death of offensive lineman Jordan McNair and a reported "toxic culture" within the Terrapins' football program.
