The New York Jets will not be returning one of their defensive assistants next year, per a recent report.

According to Brian Costello of the New York Post, safeties coach Steve Jackson will become the new cornerbacks coach of the Cincinnati Bengals. Jackson was on the Jets staff the last two seasons, having been retained after the organization made a head-coaching switch from Todd Bowles to Adam Gase.
