There will be a familiar face on the opposing sideline — or in the opposing booth — the next time Ohio State faces Northwestern.
Former Ohio State offensive coordinator Chip Kelly was named Northwestern’s newest offensive coordinator on Tuesday, December 30, just months after being fired from the same job on the Las Vegas Raiders and one year after guiding the Buckeyes’ offense to a College Football Playoff National Championship.
“Welcome to Northwestern, Chip Kelly!” Northwestern Football wrote on its official X account. “A veteran offensive mind with 35 years of NFL and college experience joins David Braun’s staff as Offensive Coordinator.”
This will be the fourth team Kelly has coached on in 4 seasons — he was UCLA’s head coach from 2018 to 2023 before resigning to take the job at Ohio State.
