Former Nebraska head coach Scott Frost is headed to the NFL where he is expected to become a senior football analyst for the Los Angeles Rams, sources told ESPN.

Frost was the head coach at Nebraska, where he starred as a quarterback in the 1990s, from 2018 to 2022. He went 16-31 as the Cornhuskers’ coach and was dismissed in September of 2022 after a 1-2 start.

Prior to returning to his alma mater, Frost emerged as one of the most coveted coaches in college football. He coached UCF to a 13-0 season in 2017 that includes the AAC title and a Peach Bowl win over No. 7 Auburn. He was the hottest coach in the coaching carousel after 2017, as he chose Nebraska after meeting with Florida.

Prior to that, Frost made a quick ascent through the college coaching ranks. He worked as an assistant at Oregon from 2009-14, a stretch where the Ducks went 79-11 and appeared in the national title game. Frost was Marcus Mariota‘s offensive coordinator during his 2014 Heisman Trophy season. He took the UCF job in 2016 and his overall record there was 19-7 in his two seasons.

As the quarterback at Nebraska, he led the Huskers to a 13-0 season and a national title in 1997. He then played five years in the NFL as a defensive back, a career that spanned 59 games.
