Matt Eberflus has landed on his feet with a new gig.

The Dallas Cowboys announced Tuesday that Eberflus had been added to the coaching staff as defensive coordinator. Eberflus washed out of the Chicago Bears after three seasons as the head coach. He rejoins the Cowboys after previously serving as linebackers coach and passing game coordinator in the early 2010s. He will lead a loaded defense that struggled with injuries and underperformed in 2024.
