Despite retirement, former Patriots offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia is still lending a hand to the New England Patriots.
On Monday, The Boston Globe‘s Ben Volin and Nora Princiotti tweeted that Scarnecchia will be assisting the Patriots at the NFL Combine. The 72-year old was spotted on a plane to Indianapolis Monday afternoon.
Scarnecchia announced his retirement in January. He spent 34 of his 36 NFL seasons with the team and worked under several head coaches including Ron Meyer, Raymond Berry, Dick MacPherson, Bill Parcells, Pete Carroll, and Bill Belichick. Hired in 1982, he had a brief stint with the Indianapolis Colts only to return to New England in 1991.
