The Dallas Cowboys are restructuring their defensive coaching staff after a disappointing 2025 season, starting with the hiring of 34-year-old Christian Parker as defensive coordinator. He replaces Matt Eberflus and aims to implement a deceptive scheme. The team also hired Scott Symons as inside linebackers coach; he is known for his successful tenure at SMU, where his defenses excelled in takeaways and run defense. Symons’ expertise in disguising coverages is expected to enhance the Cowboys’ defensive versatility and aggressiveness.
