Prior to joining Baltimore in 2014, he spent four seasons (2010-13) at the University of Georgia, first as a student assistant (2010), and three as a graduate assistant, working primarily with the linebackers, and helping mentor LB Ramik Wilson to become a first-team All-SEC selection by media and coaches after posting a conference-leading 133 total tackles, including 11 tackles for loss.

While attending Georgia, Macdonald began his coaching career at Cedar Shoals High School, coaching the linebackers and running backs under head coach Xarvia Smith, for whom he played at Centennial High School in Roswell, Ga.

He graduated summa cum laude with a finance degree from Georgia’s Terry College of Business in 2010, and earned his master’s degree in sports management from Georgia in 2013, while serving as safeties and defensive quality control coach for the Bulldogs.

Macdonald was a two-sport (football and baseball) athlete at Centennial High, and he and his wife, Stephanie, were married in 2021.
