The New York Jets’ coaching search last winter might have unfolded very differently if not for one last-minute twist. While the Jets would eventually hire Aaron Glenn to be the 22nd head coach in franchise history, it seems as though he wasn't necessarily their preferred target.
SNY’s Connor Hughes reported on Wednesday that the Jets were “all in” on Mike Vrabel, so much so that they considered him their top option by a wide margin.
The Jets' front office was reportedly ready to hand him the keys to the franchise, offering full control and more money to convince him to choose Florham Park over Foxborough.
