Matoko Noudéhou will return to the Dallas Jackals in 2023. It will be primarily as a Strength & Conditioning Coach, however, with no indication that the soon-to-be 28-year-old will be considered as a player as well. He assumed the same coaching role this past season.
When the Jackals were facing an injury crisis, Noudéhou was a surprise inclusion on the Dallas bench for their Week 11 clash against Austin. He made an immediate impression with his bulldozing runs in the midfield and would make four appearances, scoring a memorable solo try against San Diego.
Noudéhou is the only returning member of the staff for the new season. Agustín Cavalieri is the new Head Coach, with fellow Argentines Mario Ledesma and Willie Blanco named as assistants. It remains to be seen if Noudéhou takes to the pitch again in Major League Rugby.
