Kris Richard has another defensive coordinator job again.
After being fired by the Seattle Seahawks at the end of the 2017 season, Richard went to the Dallas Cowboys for a short stint, before ending up with the New Orleans Saints as DBs coach in 2021. Now, after just one season, Richard has been promoted to share the defensive coordinator duties along with fellow Pete Carroll coaching tree member Ryan Nielsen.
Richard spent eight seasons with the Seahawks, coming over with Carroll from USC after being a grad assistant for two seasons.
