Former New England Patriots captain Matthew Slater spoke for the first time to Boston 25 on Monday since Boston College High School announced he'd step in as the Eagles' **** istant head coach of leadership and development.
The three-time Super Bowl champion and retired all-pro briefly coached for the Patriots in 2024.
BC High's head coach Paul Zukauskas said he reached out to Slater after his first season at the helm for the Eagles in 2024.
"I texted him cold," Zukauskas said. "I said, 'I'm... a big fan of your career and what you represent in football. So, if you're ever interested in coaching this level, I'd love to talk to you."
After a year of communicating and sharing ideas about the program, Slater agreed to join Zukauskas' staff for the 2026 campaign.
