The Notre Dame Fighting Irish reportedly have their next defensive coordinator.
Notre Dame is expected to hire Cincinnati Bengals linebackers coach Al Golden for the position, according to Pete Sampson of The Athletic, who noted, "Golden had been the top target for weeks, but the NFL playoffs complicated Notre Dame's pursuit." Minnesota defensive coordinator Joe Rossi and Boston College defensive coordinator Tem Lukabu were also candidates, per Sampson.
Golden's Bengals lost to the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LVI on Sunday.
