He was not the Cowboys Linebackers coach during the period of time that McCarthy has been the Head Coach.
Joe Philbin has been an Offensive Coordinator for many years in the NFL and college. With the Cowboys he was not the offensive coordinator.
Your quote said Edwards got the most from "washed up Linebackers". In reality we don't know what his role was for the Cowboys during the McCarthy era.
McCarthy didn't sound enthusiastic about about the many position-less coaches or consultants. It appears these changes are driven by McCarthy.
You guys are ridiculous. That is George Edwards in the photo with the LINEBACKERS. What else was Edwards going to work with on the Cowboys roster. I hope you also know that George Edwards scouted, and coached Anthony Barr a similar Player like Parsons while with the Vikings. Anthony Barr is a LINEBACKER. He played up and down and all over the field like Parsons. He recruited Barr to the Cowboys to play LINEBACKER.
Finally, go to this link and the Cowboys website says LINEBACKER COACH George Edwards talking about the LINEBACKERS.

So based on the preponderance of the evidence, his defensive assistance was with the LINEBACKERS as a LINEBACKER coach.
By the way, Shawn Merriman in that tweet was a former Pro Bowl LINEBACKER.
