Glenn was hired as the next head coach of the Jets earlier this month after a four-year run as the Detroit Lions’ defensive coordinator. The Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh in the middle of last season. Glenn said earlier this week that he will not call defensive plays, so that will presumably fall to Wilks.

The Jets are hiring Steve Wilks as their new defensive coordinator, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Wilks will call defensive plays as part of the role. The #Jets have agreed to terms with Steve Wilks as their defensive coordinator, per sources.
