The New York Jets are one of several franchises that will be on the search for a new regime to lead the football operations this offseason.
They moved on from head coach Robert Saleh and general manager Joe Douglas during another frustrating campaign. Their playoff drought is now 14 years and they have gone nine straight seasons with a losing record.
Whoever is tasked with fixing this mess is going to have their hands full as there are a lot of obstacles to overcome.
There are some analysts wondering if the top candidates would even want the job given how things have gone under Woody Johnson’s ownership.
Alas, there are only 32 head coaching and general manager jobs in the NFL. Some are less appealing than others, but if the opportunity to move up in the ranks presents itself, someone is going to take the job.
For the Jets, that someone could be a familiar face.
While all of the talk has been about people potentially not wanting the job, there is at least one person who is on the opposite end of the spectrum — Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn.
He was a three-time Pro Bowler during his 15-year NFL career, the first eight of which were spent in New York after being selected No. 12 overall in the 1994 NFL Draft out of Texas A&M.
