Jaguars Hire Anthony Campanile as Defensive Coordinator

The former Packers assistant joins new head coach Liam Coen to overhaul Jacksonville's struggling defense.

Anthony Campanile, previously the Packers' linebackers coach and run game coordinator, has been named the Jaguars' defensive coordinator.
Campanile's hiring marks the first major staff addition by new head coach Liam Coen, who was appointed earlier this month.
The Jaguars' defense ranked 31st in yards allowed and 28th in points allowed last season, highlighting the need for significant improvement.
Campanile brings a reputation for defensive adaptability and player development, with prior experience at the Dolphins, Michigan, and Boston College.
The Jaguars hold the fifth overall pick in the upcoming NFL Draft, providing an opportunity to bolster the defensive roster under Campanile's leadership.
