Falcons Keep Jeff Ulbrich as Kevin Stefanski Assembles Staff

The move preserves continuity on a defense that set a franchise sack record in 2025.

Overview

  • New head coach Kevin Stefanski will retain Jeff Ulbrich as defensive coordinator, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
  • Tommy Rees is likely to become offensive coordinator after serving in the role for Stefanski in Cleveland in 2025.
  • Veteran line coach Bill Callahan is expected to oversee Atlanta’s offensive line, per reports from Rapoport, Tom Pelissero and Mike Garafolo.
  • Ulbrich’s unit logged 57 sacks last season to rank second in the NFL and set a franchise record, while finishing 19th in points allowed and 15th in yards.
  • Owner Arthur Blank previously said he would recommend Ulbrich to the next head coach without dictating coordinator decisions.
