Jim Caldwell is returning to coaching in 2023, latching on with the Panthers as a senior assistant. Caldwell, who hasn't had a coaching position in the NFL since 2019, and has not been a head coach since he was fired by the Lions in 2017, revealed that he does not have plans to pursue future head coaching opportunities, per David Newton of ESPN.
While the 68-year-old has been considered a candidate for various head coaching positions in the NFL over the past half-decade, Caldwell has not landed any such job. And it doesn't look as if he's planning to continue applying.
"Right now, the only job I'm concerned about is the job I do here," said Caldwell, via ESPN. "I'm not worried about the future or anything else. I don't plan on being a head coach from this point forward."
