Anthony Campanile is joining the Green Bay Packers where the former Rutgers football assistant will be on the staff of Jeff Hafley.
Hafley, who spent the 2011 season at Rutgers football as a defensive back, did not overlap during Campanile’s time at Rutgers (who spent four years with the Scarlet Knights beginning in 2012). Campanile most recently was with the Miami Dolphins, where he spent four years as the linebackers coach.
With the Packers, Campanile will be their linebackers coach.
Hafley is in his first season as the Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator. He was with Boston College before he returned back to the NFL.
Pretty big coup for #Packers coach Matt LaFleur and DC Jeff Hafley. They are expected to hire former #Dolphins LBs coach Anthony Campanile, a source said. The #Giants had interviewed Campanile for their DC job and the #Eagles wanted him as a linebackers coach, the source said.
