Georgia co-defensive coordinator Glenn Schumann is returning to Athens after having multiple conversations with the Philadelphia Eagles and interviewing last week for the defensive coordinator job, sources told ESPN on Monday.
Schumann took over the defensive playcalling duties last season at Georgia after Dan Lanning left for the Oregon head-coaching job following the 2021 season. The two-time defending national champion Bulldogs finished fifth nationally last season in scoring defense (14.3 points per game). That's despite losing a record five first-round selections on defense in the 2022 NFL draft. They were first nationally in rushing defense (77 yards per game) and second in both red zone defense and third-down conversions.
