Jeff Ulbrich has gotten the conversation he said he was expecting to get. The New York Jets have announced that Ulbrich has received an interview regarding the team’s vacant head coach position. The discussion took place on Monday.

The Falcons completed a virtual interview with Jeff Ulbrich for the organization’s defensive coordinator position, the team announced Wednesday afternoon.

The New York Jets interviewed interim coach Jeff Ulbrich for their head coach vacancy. Ulbrich was the team’s defensive coordinator the past four seasons and went 3-9 after replacing the fired Robert Saleh on Oct.

Ulbrich was the Falcons’ linebackers coach from 2015-20 and doubled as the team’s interim defensive coordinator in 2020 -- under then-interim head coach Raheem Morris, who's now entering his second season at the helm of the organization. Morris was on Atlanta's staff for the entirety of Ulbrich's tenure.

According to multiple reports, the 45-year-old Jeff Hafley will interview with the New York Jets for head coach after spending the 2024 season with the Packers.

Ulbrich was thrust into the role of the Jets' interim head coach on Oct. 8, five games into the 2024 NFL season, after Robert Saleh was dismissed. Before that, he served as the team's defensive coordinator since January 2021. With Ulbrich at the helm, the team went 3-9, completing the regular season with a 32-20 victory over AFC East rival Miami.

The Atlanta Falcons have completed another interview for their defensive coordinator vacancy, the team announced on Wednesday evening. New York Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich is the second candidate officially interviewed by Atlanta over the past week.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' secondary coach is a candidate for the defensive coordinator job with the Atlanta Falcons.

For some of those teams, that will involve finding new head coaches and/or General Managers. Three teams fired their head coaches during the season and two more have been dispatched as of 9 a.m. ET on January 6.

The Jets also are expected to interview Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores, Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady, Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley, Commanders defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr., Vikings quarterbacks coach Josh McCown and 49ers quarterbacks coach Brian Griese.

A member of Mike Tomlin's coaching staff in Pittsburgh is a candidate to become the head coach of the New York Jets.
