Andy Fantuz is going to try his hand at helping the Hamilton Tiger-Cats off the field while he works to get back on it.

Fantuz was named the organization's coordinator of player development, Hamilton announced Thursday.

The 33-year-old suffered a torn ACL last October and is currently rehabbing the injury. Drew Edwards of 3 Down Nation is reporting Fantuz intends to rejoin the team as a player once healthy.
