Michigan State football announces the ‘final piece’ of the defensive coaching staff

A week ago, Winston DeLattiboudere III was asked about the rumors of him taking the defensive line coaching position with Michigan State football by Arizona Cardinals reporters.

DeLattiboudere had spent the 2025 season with the Cardinals after spending the previous two seasons at Minnesota. It was quite the promotion for the former Minnesota defensive lineman under Joe Rossi.

When asked about the Michigan State job, however, DeLattiboudere didn’t comment, instead saying that his focus was on his current job.

That caused a brief panic among Spartan fans who expected him to be the defensive line coaching hire, but it felt like he was just being respectful to his current players, team, and employer.
