Link to story Jets | Tyler Conklin may not return Sat Jan 18, 06:22 PM
New York Jets impending free-agent TE Tyler Conklin may not return to the Jets next season since he could receive a bigger offer from another team during free agency, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Rich Cimini.
| Footballguys view: Conklin might have a larger-than-expected market for his services. He's gotten over 70 targets and caught over 50 passes each of the last four seasons. Conklin is your traditional "Y" tight end who can be on the field as a blocker and receiver. |

Jets | Allen Lazard may be on bubble Sat Jan 18, 06:11 PM
New York Jets WR Allen Lazard is a candidate to be released this offseason since he is scheduled to count $13.2 million against the salary cap next season, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Rich Cimini.
| Footballguys view: Lazard has a dead cap number of $6.5 million in 2025. As the team looks for a new quarterback, they might decide to get rid of all the guys that came in with Aaron Rodgers. On the market, Lazard may not be able to match the number he's set to make from the Jets in 2025. |

Jets | Jeff Hafley meeting with Jets Fri Jan 17, 09:50 AM
Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley will interview for the New York Jets head coaching position Friday, Jan. 17.
| Footballguys view: Hafley was at the helm of the #1 defense in the league, and the Packers did not go home in the playoffs because of the defense. He's probably not going to get this job, but this is a sign of how he is viewed around the league. It would be a blow to the very improved Packers defense if Hafley gets the promotion. |
Jets | Josh McCown to interview with Jets Fri Jan 17, 09:48 AM
Minnesota Vikings quarterbacks coach Josh McCown will interview for the New York Jets head coaching position Friday, Jan. 17.
| Footballguys view: McCown's was being bandied about as a potential head coach for the Texans in multiple hiring cycles. Many thought it was absurd that he would get interest despite having little to no coaching experience in the NFL, but the Texans appear to be ahead of the curve here, as McCown is going to at least become an offensive coordinator soon, if not in this hiring cycle. The Jets have been interviewing everyone they can and it's not an attractive job, so you never know, McCown could get a second interview and serious consideration. |

Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith completed an interview with the New York Jets for their head coach vacancy, the team announced Thursday, Jan. 16.
| Footballguys view: Smith has built solid offenses in every one of his recent stops (Titans, Falcons, Steelers), and the Jets need all the help they can get on that side of the ball. They are reportedly looking for a leader of men, and Smith has a strong reputation in that department. |
Jets | Bobby Slowik to interview with Jets Thu Jan 16, 10:42 AM
Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik will interview for the New York Jets head coaching position Thursday, Jan. 16.
| Footballguys view: Slowik has been the Texans OC for the past two seasons, and the team has had significant success with QB CJ Stroud during that time. He's from the Shanahan tree, so if added by the Jets he'd bring zone-blocking concepts to the Big Apple. That would be great for guys like Breece Hall and Braelon Allen. |

Jets | Vance Joseph interviews with Jets Wed Jan 15, 01:59 PM
Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph interviewed with the New York Jets for their head coach vacancy, the team announced Wednesday, Jan. 15.
| Footballguys view: Joseph has been a head coach before, with the Broncos for two seasons, and now he's looking for another opportunity. In all of his stops around the league, Joseph is known for his aggressive defense and the way he connects with his players. The Jets are looking for a reset on both sides of the ball, and perhaps they think a leader of men like Joseph would be the answer. |
Jets | Arthur Smith to speak with Jets Wed Jan 15, 01:11 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith will interview with the New York Jets for their head coach vacancy Thursday, Jan. 16, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: The Jets have a ton of questions this offseason, and many of them are on offense. Besides just finding a head coach, the Jets need to find a quarterback and decide what direction the offense goes in. Smith was a head coach before (Falcons), and he uses plenty of play-action passing. At least the Jets can run the ball. |

Washington Commanders defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. has been requested for an interview for the New York Jets head coaching vacancy.
| Footballguys view: The Jets have been interviewing candidates to be their next head coach since the season ended, but this is the first time Whitt's name has come up in conjunction with a head coaching vacancy this offseason. Whitt joined Dan Quinn in Washington this season after spending the last three years as the Cowboys' pass game coordinator and secondary coach. He held similar roles with the Falcons, Bears, and Packers before moving to Dallas in 2021. As Profootballtalk.com notes, the Jets have interviewed nine other candidates for the job, and they have requested several interviews with other assistants like Whitt, who were not free to interview ahead of their playoff openers. |

Jets | Davante Adams may stay with team Sun Jan 12, 03:51 PM
New York Jets WR Davante Adams is open to remain with the Jets next season even if QB Aaron Rodgers is not on the team.
| Footballguys view: Considering that Adams is due over $35 million non-guaranteed next year, he'd probably be open to playing for any team that would be willing to pay him that much. Garrett Wilson has been the subject of trade rumors, so the Jets could be starting over at wide receiver this offseason. |

Los Angeles Rams senior personnel executive Ray Farmer interviewed for the general manager vacancy of the New York Jets on Thursday, Jan. 9.

Jets | Darren Rizzi of interest to NY Jets Tue Jan 7, 02:31 PM
New Orleans Saints interim head coach Darren Rizzi is a head-coaching candidate of interest for the New York Jets, who requested permission to speak with him for their vacancy on Tuesday, Jan. 7.
| Footballguys view: Rizzi, 54, led the Saints to a 3-5 record after Dennis Allen was fired on Nov. 4 -- despite starting quarterback Derek Carr playing just four of those games. Rizzi joined the Saints as special teams coordinator in 2019. He was promoted to assistant head coach in 2022. He was previously the Dolphins special teams coordinator from 2010-2018. The Jets have cast a wide net in their coaching search, including their own former head coach Rex Ryan, who interviewed on Tuesday. |

Link to story Jets | Aaron Glenn to talk with Jets Tue Jan 7, 09:49 AM
Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn will have a virtual interview for the New York Jets head coaching vacancy this week.
| Footballguys view: According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Glenn will also be interviewed by the New Orleans Saints, Chicago Bears, and Jacksonville Jaguars regarding their respective head coach openings. All of the interviews will be virtual, per NFL rules, and they reportedly will take place from Thursday through Saturday. As Bleacher Report notes, Glenn has been lauded this season for his ability to get the best out of his unit despite the Lions losing multiple key defensive players to injuries throughout the year. A former NFL cornerback, Glenn has ties to most of the teams he will be interviewing with this week. He spent most of his NFL career -- from 1994 to 2001 -- with the Jets. Teams will have to wait until after the Lions are eliminated from the playoffs to offer Glenn a deal, but it's clear that he will have multiple options as he tries to transition to a head coach this offseason. |

Jets | Aaron Rodgers makes history Sun Jan 5, 09:21 PM
New York Jets QB Aaron Rodgers completed 23 of his 36 passes for 274 yards and a season-high four touchdowns, including the 500th of his career, in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18.
| Footballguys view: Playing in his 248th career game, Rodgers accomplished the feat faster than anyone but Peyton Manning (244 games). Sitting in fifth place all-time in career TD tosses, Rodgers is now in the 500 club with all-time leader Tom Brady (649), Drew Brees (571), Manning (539) and his former teammate Brett Favre (508). Favre and Manning are already enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and Brees, Brady, and Rodgers will eventually join them. That first touchdown was also the 25th of the season for Rodgers, tying him with Brees at 14 seasons with 25 or more TD passes, which is third all-time. Following a disappointing 2024 campaign, what the future holds for Rodgers is very much uncertain. Whether he plays at all remains undetermined. Whether he plays for the Jets again seems unlikely. But on Sunday, he delivered a statistical prompt of just how stellar his career has been. |
