2025 coaching staff Season-opening titleholders from the curated staff history.
Head coach
DeMeco Ryans
Since 2023
Offensive coordinator
Nick Caley
First season
Defensive coordinator
Matt Burke
Since 2023
Offense, 2026: neutral pass rate 57% (30th percentile). No-huddle share: 55th percentile.
Defense, 2025: blitz rate 24% (32nd percentile). Man coverage: 58th percentile.
Tempo and blitz aggression travel with the coordinator. Pass tilt belongs to the head coach and the quarterback, and coverage belongs to the roster. A coordinator change modestly raises secondary turnover, about six points.
