DeQuinn Watford rejoined the St. Ambrose football coaching staff in February 2022. He serves as the Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks Coach.

After being the last two-way starter for the Fighting Bees from 2005-2007 as a cornerback/wide receiver, Watford coached the St. Ambrose inside wide receivers in the 2020 fall and 2021 spring season.

Along with his collegiate playing experience, Watford brings eight years of offensive coaching experience, with a total of four years handling play-calling duties.

Raised in Tennessee, Watford is an alum of St. Ambrose University. He earned his Bachelor’s Degree in Integrated Studies, and is currently pursuing a Master's in Organizational Leadership.

“As an alum this is a dream of mine, to come back home with the task of putting Fighting Bee football back in the National conversation," Watford said. "Nothing about this opportunity will I take for granted. I’m looking forward to putting in the work to make all alumni of the University proud of their football team. Go Bees!”
