Jets Interview Jeff Hafley for Head Coach Position

The New York Jets have completed their interview with Jeff Hafley, the Green Bay Packers' defensive coordinator, as part of their ongoing search for a new head coach following the firing of Robert Saleh. Hafley, who previously served as head coach at Boston College and has extensive coaching experience in both college and the NFL, has been recognized for his contributions to improving the Packers' defense. During the 2024 season, the Packers ranked highly in several defensive categories, including No. 5 in fewest yards allowed. The Jets have interviewed at least 13 candidates for the coaching position, aiming to turn around a disappointing 5-12 season. The team is exploring various options as they seek a coach who can restore their aspirations for success in the NFL. Hafley's interview adds to a crowded field of candidates as the Jets continue their search for the right fit.
