Highsmith has been a successful NFL executive.
There was discussion that he could possibly take a ‘chief of staff’ role to help improve Miami’s program.
“Alonzo is part of the Hurricane family and as someone who has spent his life around football at all levels is a real asset” James wrote.
He continued: “We have had numerous discussions about our program and his observations. We approached him about an opportunity to join our team but he decided it was best to stay in the NFL. We wish him continued success in his role with the Browns.”
