NFL coaching career
Detroit Lions
Walton served four years as secondary coach for the Detroit Lions under head coach Jim Schwartz.[2]
St. Louis Rams
Walton was hired by the St. Louis Rams as defensive coordinator on February 12, 2013.[3][4] On January 29, 2014, the Rams announced they would not be renewing Walton's contract with the team. The Rams quickly hired Gregg Williams, a former Jeff Fisher assistant in Tennessee, to take Walton's place.[5]
New York Giants
On January 15, 2015, the New York Giants announced they hired Walton as their secondary/cornerbacks coach.[6][7]
Jacksonville Jaguars
On January 16, 2019, the Jacksonville Jaguars hired Walton as their cornerbacks coach. Head Coach Doug Marrone stated that the recommendation from Jim Schwartz was a big reason for Walton's hiring. ″He said if I’m going to be a head coach again, the one guy I would hire as a secondary coach would be Tim,″ Marrone said. ″When I brought him, everything that was told to me was exactly what I thought. Someone who is extremely strong, does a good job with players and gets a lot of out of them.″ In 2021 he was retained by Urban Meyer and remained on the Jaguars staff. He missed the team’s week 5 game against the Tennessee Titans due to Covid-19 symptoms.[8]
