DL Coach Baker contemplating return to NFL with Cowboys

Defensive line coach Brian Baker is contemplating a return to the NFL, but it won't be with the Carolina Panthers.

Baker, who was hired as the defensive line coach with the University of North Carolina last month, said Thursday he’s mulling over an opportunity to join the Dallas Cowboys as their defensive line coach, although he’s completely undecided at this point.

I have to sit down and talk with my wife about it when I get back to Charlotte in the next few days,” Baker said.

Sources said the Cowboys first made contact with Baker shortly after his contract expired with the Panthers. Baker called the Panthers out of respect, saying he was considering interviewing with the Cowboys. At that point the Panthers got into the mix, trying to convice Baker to return to join new head coach Ron Rivera’s staff, and some within the organization felt like he would return.

However, despite his immense respect for general manager Marty Hurney, things didn’t work out in Carolina and the Panthers moved on, hiring former Chicago Bears defensive line coach Eric Washington instead on Monday to take Baker’s old spot at defensive line.

Although his goal is to become a college head coach, Baker admits that the lure of “the star” in Dallas is intriguing.

No pro experience kind of worries me. HOWEVER, I think the man actually running the LBs will be RR himself. My gut thought is a seasoned guy wouldn't like the micro-managing of his group, so Rivera needed a newbie that would appreciate the jump to the pros and not second guess his meddling. Just a hunch....

      Who do you despise more… LaMelo Ball or Bryce Young

      By Lurk21 · Posted

      Names I'd keep an eye on... Coby White,  Jalen Suggs, Amen Thompson  and Stephen Castle...  3 teams except Orlando has checked on Melo before and rumblings of sours getting rid of fox too. I'd think they think Melo and Wemby would make them nuclear out west.

      Well he somehow had 12 preseason carries for not playing. He also has 20 carries in the regular season, not three. He has actually played in about 7% of the offensive snaps for this regular season(33% of the special teams snaps). This isn't stuff you have to make up, these are very easily referenced statistics, man.

      It's not common for a RB to recover from two ACL tears in the same knee. It's fairly rare. You are correct that it isn't the career ender that it used to be but there is also the fact that we appear to have largely moved on with the additions of Dowdle and Etienne.  Dobbins is a very good example. He has basically missed 54% of his career regular season games since he came into the league in 2020. It will end up being 57% at the conclusion of this season. It's a big contributing factor to why he is on this third NFL team in 6 years. It's certainly possible that may be 4 by the beginning of next season. I would say there is very little chance that Brooks ever contributes in any meaningful way in Carolina. Possibly with another team but I am extremely skeptical of his future here because of those injuries and because of the roster.
