Who is the coach of the dallas cowboys
✭Dallas Cowboys add NEW DB Coach || Who is Joe Whitt Jr? || His history in the NFL
after locking in their defensive
coordinator and dan quinn
the cowboys went back to the well and
have hired joe witt
jr as a secondary coach and defensive
pass game coordinator
whit has a long history as a db coach in
the nfl
starting off ironically in atlanta
before moving on to green bay
where he really sunk his teeth in the
profession the packers is where he would
develop a long respected relationship
with mike mccarthy
and also help coach up some pro bowlers
along the way here's what witt had to
say about coaching said players in green
bay well tremont and sam shields
they both were you know free agents that
became
pro bowl players but working with wood
and those guys early on
they let me know that great players want
to be coached
and and and that's one thing that i
learned very i learned it here with with
laurie malloy you know
great players want to be coached so i
coach a certain way i'm very demanding
but uh i want to make sure that when we
go out there we're giving ourselves the
best chance to win
we don't need communication errors we
don't need anything this is too hard to
win in this
this league all right so we don't want
to beat ourselves so that's
that's the thing i learned about those
guys they want to be coached they want
to be great
and if you can help them they'll listen
interestingly enough to point out during
his time with the packers the team
ranked in the top ten in interceptions
eight times the top five four times
following a long tenure in green bay
whitt would move on to the browns
organization in 2019 where he helped the
team finish as the number seven pass
defense
allowing just 216 passing yards per game
and an interception rate of 2.7
which was six in the league we're going
to get them here and they're going to do
it our way
or they won't be out there doing it and
so i'm not just talking about greedy
talking about the whole
secondary as a group we have a standard
of play physicality and effort is our
number one motto in our dna
if a guy is unwilling to do that they
won't play
after a year in cleveland the falcons
would come calling again
this time to bring him on as a secondary
coach and passing game coordinator under
head coach
dan quinn the falcons defense in 2020
was not one to write home about
and the past defense was one of the
worst in the league
so whit jr will be coming to dallas with
something to prove
reunited with mike mccarthy and dan
quinn what does joe whit jr look to get
out of the secondary we all have great
ideas but we got to make sure the great
ideas are
spoken in the same language because if
it's not that's where gray area comes
for the players and i always tell my
players
i want to remove gray if i take doubt
out of the equation you're going to go
play fast
and that's what we're going to have
these guys doing is playing fast thank
