Joe Whitt Jr., who
interviewed for the defensive coordinator job with the Dallas
Cowboys, has been hired by the team to coach the secondary and
be its defensive pass game coordinator, according to multiple
reports.
Whitt, 42, reunites with Dan Quinn, hired earlier in the week as
defensive coordinator, and Mike McCarthy. Whitt was an assistant
under McCarthy in Green Bay for 11 years and served as an
assistant under Quinn last season in Atlanta.
NFL Network reports that Whitt impressed Cowboys owner Jerry
Jones during his interview for defensive coordinator.
Maurice Linguist and Al Harris were the Cowboys' defensive backs
coaches last season.
