Florida State is reportedly adding former NFL Pro Bowl cornerback and Dolphins assistant Patrick Surtain as its next secondary coach, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel.
Surtain, who played for the Dolphins and the Chiefs during his NFL career, spent the last season serving as a defensive assistant with the Dolphins. Prior to a short stint in Miami, the 11-year veteran led American Heritage High School to three state titles from 2016 to ’21 as the program’s head coach.
A former Southern Miss standout and New Orleans native, the 46-year-old joins a Seminoles’ program that finished 10-3 overall and 5-3 in ACC play.
