One day after Hines Ward announced his retirement from the Steelers and the NFL, he received another job offer in football — as a high school coach.

The offer, Ward said, came from the prestigious private Westminster School in Atlanta. Ward lives in suburban Atlanta.

Ward said he will take his mother on a vacation, probably Hawaii, to celebrate her 65th birthday, relax a little and then decide what to do next. He said he’s had many opportunities that his lawyer and business manager, Andy Ree, will initially sift through.

He promised whatever he does, his presence will be felt in Pittsburgh, including those Sunday events in the fall at Heinz Field.

Ward can begin what Hall of Fame coach Chuck Noll often called his “life’s work” at peace with his former life because, he said, he finally realized in the three weeks between his release by the Steelers and his formal retirement that he had nothing left to prove.
