Aaron Glenn already starting to make his mark on Jets

This was far different for Aaron Glenn than it was in 1994, when he wore No. 31 on his field of dreams outside Weeb Ewbank Hall at Hofstra as a rookie first-round cornerback for first-year Jets head coach Pete Carroll.

This was his team for the first time on the grass outside the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center, a rookie again all these years later, head coach of his dream team. More than the position coach he used to be in New Orleans. More than the defensive coordinator he was in Detroit. Head coach of the New York Jets.

“And now, my focus is on the whole team,” Glenn said. “It’s outstanding when you get a chance to go to every position and be able to give my opinions on how they should do things and try to help those guys be successful. That’s the fun thing about coaching, that’s the fun thing about my development as a coach, to be able to go with the quarterbacks and talk to those guys, the running backs, the D-line, the linebackers, so that was the change, of being able to move around the field to be able to coach every position.”

Glenn hasn’t lost a game as head coach of the Jets, didn’t have to answer questions about the franchise’s 14-year playoff drought, won’t have to channel his inner Bill Parcells until the violent on-field mentality he will demand for the freakin’ New York Jets identity surfaces in earnest in training camp.
