The Atlanta Falcons added to their coaching staff on Friday, naming Mike Rutenberg as defensive pass game coordinator and Nate Ollie as defensive line coach.
The moves come six days after former New York Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich was named the Falcons’ new defensive coordinator.
Rutenberg, 43, spent the past four seasons as the Jets’ linebackers coach after serving one year as the San Francisco 49ers’ passing game specialist in 2020.
Ollie, 33, served as the assistant defensive line coach for the Houston Texans this season. He also worked with Ulbrich during his time as an assistant defensive line coach for the Jets in 2021.
The Falcons ranked 23rd in the league in both points allowed and total yards and 31st in sacks this season.
