Part 2/8:
While excitement surrounds Glenn's hiring, Connor Hughes, SNY's NFL Insider, clarified that this was not a hasty decision. The Jets had been pursuing Glenn for some time, especially after their initial top target, Mike Vrabel, opted for the New England Patriots position instead. Following Vrabel's decision, Glenn was elevated to the top of the Jets' wish list.
Hughes explained that Glenn held a well-received second interview the day prior, solidifying the Jets’ interest. Multiple sources indicated that Glenn had already begun assembling his staff, highlighting the deep-seated connection and mutual desire between Glenn and the team.
