Tyler Lenda Coaches Against His Alma Mater | Harrisburg News

Tyler Lenda, former Penn State and NFL offensive lineman, is back on the field — this time as a coach for the Red Land Patriots, where he’ll face his own high school, Cedar Cliff, in the Shore Bowl Rivalry. After two decades away from full-contact football, Lenda’s passion has been reignited, and he’s bringing his elite experience to mentor young players — especially on the offensive line. Coaching alongside fellow NFL vet Jaimie Thomas, Lenda’s already making an impact, earning respect from the team while navigating the emotional twist of coaching against his alma mater — with his parents just down the road. This isn’t just another game; it’s a homecoming with legacy, grit, and gridiron wisdom on display. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
