Safeties in Numbers; Who Will be Aaron Glenn’s Ball Hawk?

In taking over as head coach of the New York Jets, Aaron Glenn has his work cut out for him in a variety of areas. He has to oversee the development of a quarterback. He has to find a way to stop the run with undersized tackles and linebackers. He has to figure out who is going to catch passes other than Garrett Wilson.

Another chore for Glenn, and one that hasn’t gotten enough attention, is finding a safety who can make plays on the football the way his safeties managed to do in New Orleans and Detroit where he was the secondary coach and defensive coordinator respectively.
