Desai has plenty of experience as a defensive coordinator, having led the Chicago Bears defense in 2021 and the Seattle Seahawks in 2022. He later served in the same role with the Philadelphia Eagles, but he was fired late in the season.

As Bleacher Report’s Mike Chiari noted, Desai struggled to establish a defensive presence in Philadelphia just one season after the Eagles reached the Super Bowl.
