Connor Shaw has found a new job, but this one is not in the NFL.
The former South Carolina quarterback has accepted a job coaching tight ends at Furman, according to a source, ending a playing career that saw him spend parts of four seasons in professional football after starring with the Gamecocks from 2010-2013.
Shaw was added to the Paladins staff by head coach Clay Hendrix, who just completed his first season at Furman. Hendrix ended up with an opening on his staff when offensive coordinator Drew Cronic left become head coach at Lenoir-Rhyne. George Quarles was promoted from associate head coach and tight ends coach to offensive coordinator.
