A three-time Pro Bowler, Glenn takes over a Jets team that finished 5-12 and missed the playoffs for the 14th consecutive season. New York had lofty expectations going into the 2024 season with a healthy Aaron Rodgers under center, but the team could never quite find its groove.

After interviewing 16 different people for the team’s head coaching vacancy, the New York Jets look like they have made their hire.

New York hired Glenn, most recently the Detroit Lions defensive coordinator, as their next head coach, ahead of his scheduled in-person interview with New Orleans. It’s a five-year deal, according to league sources.
