The New York Jets are set to interview an experienced candidate on Wednesday night for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

According to multiple reports including NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Jets and Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn will have a second interview relating to their vacant head coach position: #Lions DC Aaron Glenn, one of the top coaching candidates, is set for an in-person, second interview with the #Jets, per me and @MikeGarafolo.

Steve Wilks is finalizing a deal to take over New York’s defense, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. He had an interview lined up for Wednesday, so that meeting has obviously gone well. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler adds a contract will be signed Thursday. This will mark a return to coaching after Wilks was out of the league in 2024.
