Now, Christian Parker seems to be taking a similar approach to his defensive staff. A day after the Cowboys added Marcus Dixon to coach the defensive line, they landed Chidera Uzo-Diribe to coach the outside linebackers, a position the franchise has never had on their staff. While with the Vikings, Dixon worked alongside an outside linebackers coach as well, former Browns head coach Mike Pettine. That was similar to his tenure in Denver, where there was also an outside linebackers coach. He’s spent the past four years coaching outside linebackers at Georgia, where he’s helped develop six NFL draft picks, including four first-round picks.
