Banta has a decades worth of NFL coaching experience on his resume with stops at the Detroit Lions (Assistant Special Teams, Linebackers Coach), Washington Redskins (Assistant ST Coach), and most recently was the Special Teams coach for the New Orleans Saints.

Jim Harbaugh and Banta go way back, as they both played together for the Indianapolis Colts from 1994-97, one season in which they were a dropped Hail Mary pass away from the Super Bowl.
