It has been reported that the Green Bay Packers are planning to get the coach of the Dallas Cowboys, who won the Super Bowl.
In the approaching offseason, it is anticipated that the Green Bay Packers would make a few adjustments to the coaching staff that they now employ. There are a few positions that appear to have a lower probability of returning, despite the fact that many people believe that head coach Matt LaFleur will be able to return without any problems.
The defensive coordinator Joe Barry, who has been under intense scrutiny as of late, appears to be at the top of that list by a significant margin. When quarterback Baker Mayfield produced what is considered to be the best game of his career, which culminated in a perfect passer rating of 158.3, the heated atmosphere in that seat became even more intense. In the time since that game, numerous names have surfaced as potential candidates for Joe Barry; nevertheless, there are not many names that are more intriguing than a coach who is now employed by the Dallas Cowboys.
As of right now, Whitt is ready to take on the role of coordinator. While he was in Green Bay, the Packers finished the decade ranked first in interceptions, seventh in completion percentage, and ninth in opponent passer rating. During his time, the Packers also were first in completion %.
The Cowboys have finished third in opponent rating, third in opponent completion %, and first in interceptions during the three seasons that the defensive passing game coordinator has been in charge of the Dallas Cowboys. In spite of the fact that Trevon Diggs suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury, Dallas is currently ranked sixth in terms of the opponent’s passer rating. DaRon Bland, who was selected in the fifth round of the previous year’s draft, currently leads the National Football League with eight interceptions and five pick-sixes.
The year 2021 marked Whitt’s arrival in Dallas, after having previously worked as a staff member in Atlanta, Green Bay, and Cleveland. Following the conclusion of his first season with the Cowboys, he was approached by a number of teams to participate in interviews for defensive coordinator roles. Despite this, he has remained in Dallas, and it is believed that he might be a possibility for that position in the event that the current DC, Dan Quinn, quits the organization.
This would be a significant victory for the team in the event that it turns out that this is not the case or if Whitt makes the decision to return to Green Bay. By the time the Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl XLV during the 2010–2011 season, Whitt was serving as the cornerbacks coach for the team.
From 2008 until 2018, Whitt was employed by the Green Bay Packers in a variety of capacities, including as the defensive quality control coach, the cornerbacks coach, and the defensive passing game coordinator.
