He interviewed with the Atlanta Falcons for his or her head teaching emptiness shortly after leaving New England, however that place was crammed by former Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris.

The eight-time Tremendous Bowl champion nonetheless desires to educate and is reportedly enthusiastic about potential openings subsequent season in Dallas, Philadelphia, and, sure, the New York Giants. All three present coaches — Mike McCarthy, Nick Sirianni and Daboll — all have varied ranges of stress on them after dissappointing finishes to the 2023 season.
