According to Adam Schefter, Glenn’s interview schedule consists of:
- Thursday pm: Jets

Glenn is a very popular coaching candidate this offseason and should be able to land a job in the coming days/weeks.
Glenn, 52, is a former first-round pick of the Jets back in 1994. He played 15 seasons for the Jets, Texans, Cowboys, Jaguars, and Saints.
Glenn began his NFL coaching career with the Browns back in 2014 as their assistant defensive backs coach.
From there, the Saints hired him two years later as their defensive backs coach and he eventually took the Lions’ defensive coordinator job last year.
In 2024, the Lions’ defense ranked No. 20 in yards allowed, No. 7 in points allowed, No. 5 in rushing yards allowed, and No. 30 in passing yards allowed.
