a salary like his (approaching $10M) and was likely to be able to retain that job indefinitely, I would be very hesitant to move to a new job (NFL, Alabama or otherwise), where my chances of retaining the job were far less certain. I suspect the NFL realizes that. Like anyone else, the NFL does not want to appear to be settling for their second choice. As such, Dabo's name would not be released to the public even if the NFL was interested.
