The New York Jets have been actively conducting interviews for their head coach and general manager positions, with notable candidates emerging in the process.
One of the latest candidates to interview for the head coach job is Aaron Glenn, the current defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions. Glenn, a former standout cornerback for the Jets, has garnered attention for his impressive work with the Lions' defense over the past four seasons, elevating the unit to one of the best in the league. He has previously been sought after by other teams and brings a wealth of experience both as a player and a coach.
Glenn joins a list of other candidates who have interviewed for the head coaching position, including Mike Vrabel, Ron Rivera, Rex Ryan, and Matt Nagy. Additionally, Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, Minnesota defensive coordinator Brian Flores, and Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich are expected to meet with the team as well.
On the general manager front, the Jets have interviewed Ray Farmer, the current executive with the Los Angeles Rams. Farmer, who has played a key role in building the Rams' roster that achieved success in recent years, brings a strong background in personnel management and scouting. He has previously served as the general manager for the Cleveland Browns and held positions with other NFL teams.
Farmer is one of several candidates who have interviewed for the general manager position, including individuals with diverse backgrounds in football operations and player evaluation.
Both Glenn and Farmer represent strong contenders for their respective roles with the Jets, and the team's decision-making process is ongoing as they seek to fill these crucial leadership positions.
