Chris Hewitt for DC Anyone?: Current Secondary Coach of the Ravens
Christopher Horace Hewitt (born July 22, 1974) is a former National Football League defensive back who is currently the secondary coach of the Baltimore Ravens. Hewitt played professionally for three seasons with the New Orleans Saints. After eight seasons on the coaching staff of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights football team, Hewitt was the special teams coach for the Baltimore Ravens and was the assistant secondary coach for the 2014 season.
Hewitt was born in Kingston, Jamaica and grew up in Englewood, New Jersey, where he attended Dwight Morrow High School. He played for the Cincinnati Bearcats football team at the collegiate level. Hewitt's 31.50 kickoff return average in the 1993 season ranks second on the all-time rankings for the Cincinnati Bearcats, while his 742 career kickoff return yards rank ninth and his 28.54 career yards per kickoff returns place him first on the school's rankings. Hewitt played as a defensive back and on special teams for the New Orleans Saints in 1997, starting two games and finishing the season with 12 tackles and a fumble recovery as a defensive back. In 1998, he again started two games and had 9 tackles and two sacks. In his third and final season with the Saints, Hewitt was limited to one tackle and a sack. He joined the coaching staff at Rutgers under Greg Schiano, where he spent eight years, including as running backs coach and defensive backs coach. As part of the NFL's Minority Coaching Fellowship Program, Hewitt worked on the staffs of the Cleveland Browns and Philadelphia Eagles, as well as the Ravens, who hired him in February 2012 as the team's assistant special teams coach. Hewitt was brought into the Ravens by head coach John Harbaugh, who had been Hewitt's special teams coach when he was playing at the age of 17 as a freshman at the University of Cincinnati. Hewitt was part of the Ravens coaching staff for the Raven's victory at Super Bowl XLVII in 2013, which was played in New Orleans at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, where Hewitt played in the NFL with the Saints. A seventh-year coach for the Ravens, Hewitt has been the secondary coach for arguably the NFL’s top passing defense in the league for the last two years. Previously serving as their defensive backs coach, Hewitt has helped turn the Ravens secondary into a ball-hawking, stifling group. Running a multitude of coverage shells, Hewitt’s attacking, aggressive style with a secondary group lacking top-end talent has been able to keep offenses on their toes and support a blitz-heavy front. Likely running an aggressive, shifting defense, Hewitt would be a bold hire. Reid would certainly be counting on his ability to install a complex scheme and maximize personnel as a defensive coordinator. If that risk ended up paying off, there is high-end potential for a Hewitt-led stop unit. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Hewitt https://www.arrowheadpride.com/2019/...ve-coordinator |

Because lord knows that the mark of every great leader is not taking a chance on talented people because he's unwilling to trust them to do their job...

Good OCs and DCs really are one in the same. And BB is the best at both and why he wins so much. He knows how to scheme not just defensively but I assure you he studies the defense of his oppenents just as much and then gives JM a group of plays to call from in certain down situations. Anyone who thinks JM is his own man is very very naive. The majority of if not all of BBs staff that leave for HC positions have failed IS very telling IMHO. |

Man oh man, I wish the news about Spagnuolo somehow was coupled with Hewitt coming here (Spagnuolo was Hewitt's first boss as a Defensive Assistant). But it seems like really, really wishful thinking.

Yep. I would prefer that we hire someone that isn't a buddy of Andy. We need someone that will bring something different to the team. We don't need another kissass that will worry more about Reid's feelings than doing his job.

Poop. Would be nice to see Hewitt as our DC. I think his resume justifies a promotion to DC. Can't imagine that he would not be ready to be an effective DC by the start of the next season.

The Chiefs should hire Michael McDonald just to prove that the defense couldn't get any worse.

Really promote from within. Tell Berry he has a secondary choaching job if he retires from playing. Save his salary tell Houston restructure or walk that could save a bunch of money which we really need to sign FA Jones Ford Hill.
