After 16 seasons coaching in the NFL—peaking with a one-year stint as the head coach of the Browns in 2019—Freddie Kitchens returned to the college ranks as an analyst for South Carolina in ’22. Now, he’s on the move again.
Kitchens was announced as the run game coordinator and tight ends coach at North Carolina on Tuesday, the school announced. Kitchens will join head coach Mack Brown’s staff as Brown enters the fifth season of his second stint with the Tar Heels.
“Freddie brings a wealth of experience as a head coach, a coordinator and a position coach,” Brown said in a statement. “We were really impressed with his resume and believe he will mesh nicely with the other members of the staff.”
