One of the lesser-known names on the Jets’ list of head coaching targets is Matt Eberflus, the defensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts.
Jets have put in a request to interview Colts' DC Matt Eberflus for their HC position, per source.
Jets also expected to request permission on Titans' OC Arthur Smith.
There will be more; this is a fluid, thorough and lengthy, process.

The Jets have a connection to Eberflus through assistant general manager Rex Hogan, who was a member of Indianapolis’ front office when Eberflus was hired by the team in 2018.
