The Jerome Henderson era ended last month; and for some, including myself, it couldn’t have been any sooner. With Henderson moving on, the Cowboys have been searching for his replacement, or more of a revamping of the secondary coaching structure.
Joe Baker was the safeties coach under Henderson, and he will assume that role now that the Cowboys have hired Greg Jackson.
Word of the hiring came down from Ian Rapoport:
The #Cowboys are hiring #Michigan DB coach Greg Jackson to coach the safeties, while Joe Baker will coach CBs.

Greg Jackson is a Jim Harbaugh, no non-sense disciple. He worked with Harbaugh in Michigan as well with his stint with the 49ers. Jackson tends to coach a more aggressive style and something the Cowboys should benefit back there. I always felt Rod Marinelli needed a different DBs coach under his system, so fresh blood in the secondary could be just what the doctor ordered.
