Former Bengals Assistant Coach Reuniting With Mike Zimmer, Joining Cowboys' Staff

Zimmer is bringing in a familiar face.

CINCINNATI — Former Bengals defensive coordinator Paul Guenther is joining Mike Zimmer in Dallas. 

Guenther replaced Zimmer as the Bengals' defensive coordinator in 2014 after spending nearly a decade as an assistant on Marvin Lewis' staff. Now he'll reunite with Zimmer on the Cowboys' coaching staff. 

Guenther will be the defensive run game coordinator. The Cowboys named Zimmer their new defensive coordinator earlier this month. 

Guenther was also a senior defensive assistant on Zimmer's staff in Minnesota for the 2021 season. 

Cowboys hired Paul Guenther as their defense’s run game coordinator, a person familiar with the decision said. This is a big move DC Mike Zimmer long targeted, giving him an accomplished top assistant in whom he has immense trust.

Guenther is a former Bengals and Raiders DC.
