NY Jets’ Jermaine Johnson reveals difference between Aaron Glenn, Robert Saleh

Since the New York Jets hired Aaron Glenn as head coach, a noticeable culture shift has taken place throughout the organization. However, what sets Glenn apart from former Jets head coach Robert Saleh, who was also a first-time, defensive-minded leader?

Speaking with team reporter Caroline Hendershot, defensive end Jermaine Johnson pointed to what he believes is the most significant difference between the two.

“He’s [Glenn] intense; he’s played the game before,” Johnson said. “So for me, when he says something, I just pick it up in a different way because I know he has done it before, and I know exactly what he is talking about because it is coming from the place of a player, so that is just a plus having AG as the head guy.
