Jim Leonhard withdraws from Packers’ defensive coordinator search

Jim Leonhard is staying in Wisconsin.

Well, technically, he would have done that even if he had taken the Green Bay Packers’ defensive coordinator job. However, according to Tom Oates of the Wisconsin State Journal, Leonhard has decided to remain in Madison as the Wisconsin Badgers’ defensive coordinator instead.

After careful consideration, University of #Wisconsin defensive coordinator Jim Leonard informed #Pqckers coach Matt LaFleur Friday night that he will not accept the same position in Green Bay, according to Leonhard and his agent, Tim Valentyn of Madison.
