After the 2024 regular season, the Bears, Jets, and Saints made coaching changes, joined by the Cowboys, Jaguars, Raiders, and Patriots. Coaches Eberflus, Saleh, and Allen secured defensive coordinator positions for 2025 post-midseason terminations. Mike McCarthy opted out of coaching for the Saints, making it a year away from coaching, akin to his previous career hiatus. Doug Pederson failed to secure an offensive coordinator role, and both Antonio Pierce and Jerod Mayo also find themselves off coaching roles. In contrast, nine long-tenured coaches remain in their positions, with Mike Tomlin set to lead the Steelers.
By the end of the 2024 regular season, teams like the Bears, Jets, and Saints transitioned away from their head coaches, adding to the Cowboys, Jaguars, Raiders, and Patriots.
Midseason terminations saw coaches like Matt Eberflus, Robert Saleh, and Dennis Allen secure defensive coordinator roles for the 2025 hiring cycle, while others remain without positions.
Mike McCarthy's withdrawal from the Saints' head coach search places him out of coaching for at least one year, mirroring his gap between Packers and Cowboys.
Despite recent coaching turnovers, nine of the longest-tenured head coaches, including Mike Tomlin, Sean McVay, and Kyle Shanahan, are returning in 2025.
