My Take

Kerrigan's arc is the one I keep coming back to: small-town Muncie, Indiana, to unanimous All-American at Purdue, to a first-round pick in 2011. As a pass rusher built to chase quarterbacks, he had the physical gifts, but what interests me more is the second act. Moving into coaching after retirement says something about a player who genuinely loves the craft and wants to pour his instincts into the next generation. Plenty of stars walk away once the cheering stops; Kerrigan chose to keep teaching. That mix of personal ambition and the urge to give back is exactly the kind of career I quietly respect.
