On defense, Glenn will be tasked with finding a new defensive coordinator, plus replacements for the quarterbacks coach, pass game coordinator, defensive line coach, linebackers coach, and three other assistant defensive roles.
Offensively, Tanner Engstrand is expected to remain with the Jets, but his exact role, responsibilities, and the overall structure of the unit are still being defined; the team is coming off a 29th-ranked total offense, highlighting the need for clarity in play-calling and scheme.
One veteran candidate linked to the Jets for a senior offensive advisory role who could call plays is Frank Reich, according to SNY’s Connor Hughes.
Former quarterback Boomer Esiason publicly reinforced the interest on WFAN, saying Hughes is credible and Reich is in discussions with the Jets, underscoring the level of intrigue around Reich’s potential fit.
If added, Reich would bring a track record of offensive success, including coordinating the 2017 Eagles to a Super Bowl run and a reputation for QB development, which could appeal to a Jets offense aiming to improve its efficiency. No hire has been confirmed as the Jets continue to assemble their staff.
