Nagy offers over 20 years of NFL Scouting experience and he was a key member of three Super Bowl-winning rosters.

The interviews are coming just days after Catherine Raiche accepted a key position with the Browns, and then Philadelphia fired Casey Weidl and three other staffers.

Nagy was named the new Executive Director of the Reese’s Senior Bowl back in 2018, and he’s taken the premiere college football All-Star game to new heights.

A large portion of Senior Bowl participants have gone on to have illustrious NFL careers in recent memory and several key members of the current Eagles roster have experience in Mobile.

Brandon Hunt

Hunt is a homegrown talent for the Steelers.

A Pittsburgh native, Hunt attended IUP and has been learning on the job under Kevin Colbert for almost 15-years.

Hunt officially joined Pittsburgh’s scouting department in 2010, before being named the pro scouting coordinator for Houston after Doug Whaley was hired as the general manager of the Buffalo Bills.
