In his role as director of football operations last year, Estes coordinated travel arrangements, team meals and served as a liaison between the program and campus housing. Estes also assisted in the recruiting efforts of the Winston-Salem State program.

Estes has performed internships with three NFL programs – the Pittsburgh Steelers (March 2007-March 2008), Carolina Panthers (July 2006-September 2006) and Denver Broncos (June 2005-February 2006). During those stints, Estes assisted with day-to-day football operations as well as served the media relations and personnel departments.

Estes graduated cum laude from Winston-Salem State in 2004 with a bachelor’s degree in business administration with a concentration in management. As an undergrad, Estes spent the spring of 2003 studying business at the Copenhagen Business School in Copenhagen, Denmark.
