New York Jets has taken the first big step to release the rebuilding from the ground.
On Wednesday, Jets has announced that he has hired Aaronglen, a defensive coordinator of Detroit Lions, as a new head coach.
52 -year -old Glen, just three days after the Lions was excluded in a round -playoff game in the category, was directly interviewed with Jets, and was hired by releasing the team’s assistant. He was planning to interview a second time with New Orleans saints in the second half of this week, according to multiple reports.
Currently, the former NFL corner back functions as a leader of the franchise played from 1994 to 2001, and has two of the noddes of the three career professional bowls. He also started post -play NFL career in Jets as a scout.
“This is a special thing for me,” Glen said in a statement. “When I was drafted and practiced on Long Island, when I returned as a scout in New Jersey, I always felt like a house. Thanks to this opportunity (owner Woody). We are ready to be coached by our players. I would like to ask our fans to win.

This week, Glen agreed that Ben Johnson agreed to sign a contract with Chicago Bears on Monday, and became the second Lions coordinator this week to get the top job with another team.
In Detroit, Glen has developed a positive defense ranked 7th at 2024, despite the rash of personnel losses.
His planning, which is heavy in human news and lightning, should be inherited by New York, which is characterized by the best talent, such as corner back source gardner and defensive tackle quinnen williams. However, despite being ranked 3rd for the second consecutive year, the unit shakes after the defensive coordinator Jeff Wolblich has been dismissed after Robert Saleha has been taken over, and the unit has been allowed. The defense ended.
New York finished 5-12 in 2024, extending the longest active post-season drought in the league to 14 seasons.
After Joe Douglas in November, Jets has no General Manager yet.
Probably the biggest problem that Glen is facing is whether Aaron Rogers is part of the 2025 team’s plan. The quarterback remains in the contract, but acknowledges his future in the organization.
“I think everyone understands that everyone will come down to GM, coach and me. Do we all want to dance together or not in the card,” said Rogers last week. Ta.
