New Alabama Staffer Ha Ha Clinton-Dix Says Saban Already Chewed Him Out

The former Crimson Tide safety started a new job with his alma mater.

Former NFL safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix officially retired from the NFL in December, and has already started his transition into the next phase of his career. Clinton-Dix took a job with his alma mater, Alabama, as a director of player development.

On Tuesday, Clinton-Dix reported to his new job for the first time, but apparently Nick Saban did not care that it was the former defender’s first day. Clinton-Dix tweeted that the Alabama coach already gave him an “A– Chewing” just moments into his new job, an interaction that he expects to be the first of many.

1st day on the Job I got a Ass Chewing from Coach Saban. 1 down 5 million to go. #RolltideRoll 😫☺️

Clinton-Dix played for Saban at Alabama from 2011 to ’13, playing his way into the first round of the 2014 NFL draft. For the Crimson Tide, Clinton-Dix played in 38 games and recorded 58 tackles and seven interceptions in three seasons.

Following a seven-year NFL career, Clinton-Dix is returning to Alabama, but apparently his first day went a lot like his college career playing for Saban.
