New York Jets Mark Cannizzaro Frank Reich is the ‘empowering’ solution to one of Aaron Glenn’s major Jets mistakes By Mark Cannizzaro Published Aug. 7, 2026, 7:07 p.m. ET Jets offensive coordinator Frank Reich speaks to the media after practice. Bill Kostroun for the NY Post Aaron Glenn made two significant mistakes when he was hired as the Jets head coach last year.
Take flight with the Jets Text with Brian Costello all season as he brings Sports+ subscribers the latest Jets intel from on the field and off.
The first was not having his hands all over the defense — considering that he was hired as the team’s head coach in large part because of his success as a defensive coordinator.
The second was not hiring an experienced offensive coordinator to oversee the other side of the ball that Glenn is far less experienced coaching.
After a 3-14 rookie season as a head coach, Glenn addressed both of those issues and hopes those changes lead to a third season as Jets head coach and hopefully many more after that.
