Joe Barry will not return as defensive coordinator for the Green Bay Packers. Head Coach Matt LaFleur made the announcement Wednesday.

Barry has worked as an NFL coach for 22 seasons, including the last three years as the defensive coordinator for the Packers.

“We want to thank Joe for his commitment and contributions to our success the past three seasons,” said LaFleur. “These decisions are extremely difficult and Joe is one of the best men I’ve had the opportunity to work with in this league.”
