Ravens Hire Chuck Pagano As Senior Secondary Coach

Pagano elected to retire in 2021 following his time as the Bears’ defensive coordinator. He now returns to Baltimore, where he spent 2008-2011 as their secondary coach and defensive coordinator. 

Pagano, 64, spent a few years as the Ravens’ secondary coach before he was promoted to defensive coordinator in 2011. The Colts later hired him as their head coach a year later and he spent six years in Indianapolis before he was fired last year.

Pagano interviewed for the Bronco and Packers head coach jobs, but both teams elected to go in a different direction. He later agreed to become the Bears’ next defensive coordinator in 2019 before retiring in 2021. 

During his six years in Indianapolis, Pagano led the team to a record of 53-43 (55.2 percent) and three playoff appearances including an AFC Championship game appearance in 2014.
