Amid strong links between Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn and the New York Jets’ search for a new head coach, reports have surfaced indicating that Glenn could soon be tabbed as a bench boss somewhere.

Connor Hughes of SNY reported earlier in the day that former Arizona Cardinals and Carolina Panthers head coach Steve Wilks is Glenn's top pick to be the Jets defensive coordinator. Wilks' experience as a play-caller and head coach is an important asset that Glenn can use to his advantage.

A former NFL head coach has been rumored to join Aaron Glenn's staff with the New York Jets if hired, per Connor Hughes of SNY.
