The Falcons are interviewing Packers assistant Derrick Ansley for their defensive coordinator job


The Falcons have completed an interview with Packers defensive passing coordinator Derrick Ansley for their open defensive coordinator position, the organization announced Thursday.

Ansley is the fourth completed interview by the Falcons since their search for the next defensive coordinator began earlier this week. Atlanta previously interviewed Don “Wink” Martindale, Jeff Ulbrich and Lou Anarum.

Ansley spent two years as the Chargers’ defensive backs coach before becoming the defensive coordinator prior to the 2023 season. He initially did not call the defensive plays in that role, but took over when head coach Brandon Staley was fired at the end of the regular season.

Ansley left for the Packers a year ago after the Chargers hired Jim Harbaugh.

  • Ansley also coached at the University of Tennessee (2019-20) and for the Raiders (2018).
