The Atlanta Falcons will have their fourth different defensive coordinator in as many seasons when Jeff Ulbrich arrives in Flowery Branch.

In January 2025, former New York Jets interim coach Jeff Ulbrich was hired as the team’s defensive coordinator after working in that same role in an interim capacity with Morris after Quinn’s firing.

Jeff Ulbrich is returning to the Atlanta Falcons as defensive coordinator, the team announced Saturday night. Ulbrich was the New York Jets' defensive coordinator over the past four seasons and served as interim head coach for the final 12 games of the 2024 season.
