Ejiro Evero Completes In-Person Interview with Atlanta

The Panthers defensive coordinator is in the mix for the Falcons' job.

The Atlanta Falcons are all-in on vetting the top coaches available this cycle including Bill Belichick, Jim Harbaugh, and Mike Vrabel but are also considering some of the top coordinators in the league who are looking to land their first head coaching gig.

Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik, and Panthers defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero are among that group. Wednesday, Evero completed an in-person interview with Atlanta, marking his second interview with the team.

Evero completed his second interview for the Panthers' head coaching job on Monday and is also in the running for the Seattle Seahawks job.

As challenging as the 2023 season was for Carolina, it wasn't because of the defensive side of the ball. Evero's unit took care of business and played above expectations with several players missing games left and right due to injury. Carolina's defense ranked third in the league in yards allowed (298.1) and third in passing defense (175.1 ypg) in their lone season with Evero running the show.

Why Not Interview Harbaugh and Belichick?
