Gibbs and Choice were first connected at Georgia Tech, where Choice -- who starred as a running back from 2005 to '07 -- recruited and coached Gibbs from 2020 to '21, before the Lions running back transferred to Alabama for the 2022 season. Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs is thrilled to be back under the watchful eye of assistant coach Tashard Choice. "The impact Coach Choice had on me, it wasn't just personal, it was a godly impact. Paced by Gibbs and Montgomery, the Lions have a league-best 56 rushing touchdowns over the past two seasons. "If you look at what Jahmyr has been able to do and then seeing Coach Choice being able to get hired on, we're looking for even greater things in the future.
