Aaron Glenn is getting a second look from the Jets for their head coaching vacancy, this one in person. 

Glenn, who was drafted 12th overall by the Jets in 1994 and is the Lions defensive coordinator, interviewed with the Jets virtually while Detroit was still in its playoff run. 

With the Lions eliminated from the playoffs by Washington on Saturday night, Glenn is free to make in-person visits with teams. He is reportedly scheduled to visit the Saints on Wednesday for an in-person interview. 

Glenn has also interviewed virtually with the Saints, with whom he also has ties, having coached defensive backs in New Orleans from 2016-’20 and where he played in 2008. 

The Jets, of course, remain without a general manager, which may complicate things if team owner Woody Johnson wants to hire Glenn.

Because if Johnson wants to attract whomever his top GM candidate is, that job perhaps becomes less attractive if that GM has nothing to do with the hiring of the team’s head coach. 

To that end, the Jets are set to interview Commanders assistant GM Lance Newmark on Tuesday for the second time, according to ESPN. Newmark, who’s in his first season with Washington, spent the previous 26 seasons with the Lions and has worked with Glenn. 

The Jets have interviewed some 15 candidates for their vacant general manager position. They have interviewed 16 candidates for their vacant head coaching job.
