Wisconsin football: Jim Leonhard staying in Madison according to reports

After a worried frenzy broke out this week when reports surfaced that Wisconsin Badgers defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard not only interviewed for the defensive coordinator job with the Green Bay Packers, but was considered one of the top targets, many figured that the 38-year old was destined to make the move.

After careful consideration, University of #Wisconsin defensive coordinator Jim Leonard informed #Pqckers coach Matt LaFleur Friday night that he will not accept the same position in Green Bay, according to Leonhard and his agent, Tim Valentyn of Madison.
