Leon Lett, known to many pro football fans as “The Big Cat,” continues to build his coaching resume while adding to his list of off-the-field accomplishments.

In summer 2011, Lett returned to his NFL roots by accepting an invitation to serve a coaching fellowship at the preseason training camp of his former franchise, the famed Dallas Cowboys. The coaching fellowship extended through the NFL 2011 season assisting the coaching staff for the defensive line. His reuniting with the Cowboys followed a stint north of the border where Lett served as a guest coach for the Canadian Football League’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats.
