Green Bay Packers defensive passing game coordinator Derrick Ansley interviewed with the Atlanta Falcons for their open defensive coordinator job, the team announced Thursday. Ansley is the Falcons' fourth interview for the job.

The Atlanta Falcons have completed a third interview for their defensive coordinator vacancy. Lou Anarumo, the former Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator, met with the team on Thursday afternoon.

Lake had never been a defensive coordinator or a defensive playcaller prior to 2024. It's likely that the Falcons bring in someone with more experience doing that job this offseason. Former Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo will also be interviewed, per an NFL Network report.
