Incoming New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn has reportedly selected six coaches to join his first staff in the Big Apple, including some former head coaches.
Glenn points to Steve Wilks as his defensive coordinator, as well as former Kansas City Chiefs head coach Todd Haley.
Glenn is also considering former Chicago Bears interim head coach Thomas Brown, according to Fox Sports.
One of his former players, former NFL defensive back Chris Banjo, is being sought to become the Jets' special teams coach. He is currently part of the Broncos' special teams staff.
Mark Brunell, former NFL star and current Lions quarterbacks coach, could continue the exodus from the Motor City and join the Jets as well.
Mike Westhoff retired after the 2024 NFL season, and Glenn reached out to see if a career U-turn is possible.
Aaron Glenn hasn't wasted any time trying to put together his first staff as coach of the New York Jets.
Glenn was the Lions' defensive coordinator since 2021, getting his first opportunity as a head coach for the team that drafted him in the first round 31 years earlier.
Since losing in the divisional round to the Washington Commanders on Saturday, the Lions have lost three assistant coaches, including Glenn, to other teams.
Detroit offensive coordinator Ben Johnson landed his own head coaching job with the Chicago Bears.
Defensive line coach Terrell Williams landed a promotion on Mike Vrabel's New England Patriots staff as defensive coordinator.
Glenn is the seventh head coach the Jets have hired since 2000, and all but one, Adam Gase, were first-time head coaches when they were hired.
