The Falcons promised to interview several candidates for their defensive coordinator opening, and while we’re not sure what the scope of that search will ultimately prove to be, we do know that the team is looking into four very different candidates.
Those include former Saints head coach Jim Haslett, Broncos defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, and New Orleans defensive line coach and co-defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen. A name floated early in the search by D. Orlando Ledbetter was Packers passing game coordinator and defensive backs coach Jerry Gray, and it has been reported by NFL insider Benjamin Allbright that Gray will interview for the job next week.
