Good move for the Bengals. I was hoping that Washington or somebody else would sign him away, because he has done a nice job with that defense.
Bengals keep Mike Zimmer
Posted by Michael David Smith on January 12, 2010 1:32 PM ET
Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer was considered one of the most sought-after assistant coaches in the NFL this off-season, with the Redskins and Dolphins among the teams that were reportedly interested in his services. But he's not going anywhere.
Steve Wyche of NFL.com reports that Zimmer has re-signed with Cincinnati.
There's no word on the details of Zimmer's contract, but considering that he had Dan Snyder's deep pockets to use as leverage, it's probably safe to say that the Bengals gave Zimmer a hefty raise.
The Bengals hired Zimmer as their defensive coordinator in 2008. He has previously worked for the Cowboys and Falcons.
UPDATE: Wyche reports that Zimmer signed a three-year contract.
