IMO, that is a great thing.

Me too. He's a damn good coach who's 77 yrs old & he could step into retirement at any second or God forbid have health issues. I'm glad BA ain't putting all his eggs in the basket by making LeBeau the DC.

Agreed. I'm betting it was a mutual decision.

lebeau at DC would be a short term hire due to age, making him an assistant allows grooming of a DC who can coach much longer.
