The Jets are interviewing candidates for their vacant offensive coordinator job, and they reportedly have their eyes set on a Patriots assistant.
New York will interview New England tight ends coach Nick Caley, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport on Saturday. The request reportedly was sent in, and the interview will happen next week.
Caley is the team’s longest-tenured assistant, having been with the Patriots since 2015, and his name has been speculated to be in contention for an internal promotion as offensive coordinator due to the team’s tendency to promote from within.
The Jets are seeking to replace Mike LaFleur, who parted ways with the organization Wednesday.
