FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Aaron Glenn met with his New York Jets players ahead of their first practice of the summer and shared a simple goal.
And he did it without using gimmicky catch phrases or emotion-driven words. Glenn is all about business in Year 2 of leading the Jets, who are looking to put a 3-14 season far behind them and hoping to end a 15-year postseason drought.
"We just want to build off the momentum that we actually had in OTAs going into training camp," Glenn said Wednesday. "So no slogans, no hype speeches. Wanted to set the tone with the players yesterday. And man, we're ready to improve. And that's what we're trying to do."
Glenn's job depends on it.
The former Pro Bowl cornerback returned last year to the team that drafted him in the first round in 1994, looking to lead the Jets back to respectability in his first opportunity as an NFL head coach. Instead, Glenn oversaw one of the worst seasons in team history. Mistakes in decision making, clock management and personnel were among the culprits. So were some of his choices on his coaching staff.
