The Green Bay Packers made a significant decision to part ways with defensive coordinator Joe Barry, according to Tom Pelissero, ending his three-year tenure with the organization. Among the fan and media discussions for a potential replacement, the name that has gained traction is Jim Leonhard, a former Wisconsin Badgers player and coach.

Three years ago, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur offered Leonhard the defensive coordinator job, but he chose to turn it down and remain with the University of Wisconsin in the same role.
