The Green Bay Packers are one of the few teams without a defensive coordinator next season.
After firing Joe Barry after three disappointing seasons, this time they will do their due diligence to find the right person for the job. As of Tuesday, Jan. 30, the Packers have expressed interest or interviewed with four different coaches. The first interview for the Packers defensive coordinator opening went to former Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley.
However, he is not expected to be a major contender for the job, and many believe he will return in 2020 to the Los Angeles Rams, where he was the defensive coordinator. The Packers also requested permission to interview Buffalo Bills coach Bobby Babich and Dallas Cowboys defensive backs coach Aden Durd.
So far, there are only reports that Green Bay is interested in them, but there have been no endorsements or interviews. Finally, the Packers interviewed Denver Broncos defensive backs coach Christian Parker. Assume the position has already been offered. But this report refused the process, because Ian Rapopport revealed a new candidate for the opening of Packers.

He was with the organization from 2012 to 2016, first as the defensive quality control coach and then as the defensive tackles coach.From 2017 to 2020, Wilson was the cornerbacks coach for the New York Jets (he was also the passing game coordinator from 2019 to 2020).
He played in the same role with the Philadelphia Eagles from 2021 to 2022 and helped the team reach the Super Bowl last season.Last year, Wilson was the defensive backs coach for the Baltimore Ravens, who boasted a defense that was sixth-best in the NFL in yards given up per game. They also have the sixth-best pass defense and the best scoring defense, allowing just 16.5 yards per game.
