Ian Rapoport reports that there is a mutual interest between the Packers and Broncos assistant HC Jim Leonhard for the team’s defensive coordinator position.
Leonhard, 43, played 10 seasons in the NFL for the Bills, Ravens, Jets, Broncos, Saints, and Browns. He was hired as the defensive backs coach at Wisconsin for the 2016 season.
Wisconsin promoted Leonhard to defensive coordinator the following year, and he remained in the role until the 2022 season, when he took over as the interim head coach.
Leonhard finished with a record of 5-3 as the interim coach at Wisconsin in 2022. He joined the Illinois coaching staff for the 2023 season, then caught on with the Broncos in 2024 as the secondary coach.
In 2025, the Broncos promoted Leonhard to assistant head coach and defensive pass game coordinator.
We will have more on Leonhard and the Packers as it becomes available.
