After one year at Boston College, the Bears hired Desai as a quality control coach. He was later promoted to their safeties coach for the 2019 season and again to defensive coordinator in 2021.
In 2021, the Bears rank No. 11 in total defense, including No. 8 against the pass and No. 22 against the run, and No. 24 in points allowed per game.
