Paul Alexander✓
Former Bengals OL Coach (24yr) · Author 'PERFORM'
Cincinnati, Ohio
One of the most accomplished offensive-line coaches in NFL history — 24 seasons with the Bengals plus the Cowboys and Jets, repeatedly named the league’s top OL coach. Author and educator, he now offers clinics, consulting, and online courses on line technique and performance.
Paul Alexander coached NFL offensive lines for a quarter century — 24 seasons with the Cincinnati Bengals plus stops with the Cowboys and Jets — and was repeatedly recognized as the league's top offensive-line coach. Few people alive have taught more professional linemen.
He is also one of the position's great writers and educators. His book PERFORM distills a career of line technique and performance thinking, and he now teaches through clinics, consulting, and online courses rather than a single team room.
His influence runs through the LinePlay bloodline directly: Alexander is one of the coaching mentors in founder Coach Jay Freeman's own tree, alongside Howard Mudd, Jim McNally, Bill Callahan, and Hudson Houck — the school of line play this site teaches from.
Alexander works mostly with professional players and coaches. For developing linemen, his books and courses are the accessible entry point — and the LinePlay coach directory lists vetted O-line trainers who teach in that same tradition.
