New Jets defensive coordinator Frank Bush has support of players

New game, new defensive coordinator.

The Jets defense is trying hard to put the drama of the past couple days behind them as they prepare to face the Seattle Seahawks and Russell Wilson.

While it is easier said than done, two defensive starters threw their support behind interim defensive coordinator Frank Bush on Friday. Bush, who was the team’s assistant head coach and inside linebackers coach, was promoted to take over as the defensive coordinator for the final four games on Monday. He replaces Gregg Williams, who was fired on Monday, the day after his controversial cover-zero blitz call against the Raiders cost the Jets their first victory of the season.
