Glenn has been the Lions’ defensive coordinator for the last two seasons.

The Lions did not have a great statistical season defensively. They finished 28th in scoring defense, allowing 25.1 point per game, and they were last in total defense, allowing 392.4 yards per game. However, they did make strides over the final half of the season.

They allowed 19.5 points per game and 351.2 yards per game over their final six contests, holding opponents under 300 yards three times.

Before his stint with the Lions, Glenn coached defensive backs for the Cleveland Browns and New Orleans Saints from 2014-2020.
