Aaron Glenn famously said last September that “big ships turn slow” when referencing the task in front of him of turning around a Jets franchise that has not had a winning record since 2014.

Eleven months later, Glenn is still the captain of that big ship, but there are already questions of how quickly owner Woody Johnson might throw him overboard.

Look at any list of “coaches on the hot seat” and Glenn’s name is always at or near the top. It’s not hard to understand why. The Jets went 3-14 in Glenn’s first year, and there were games when he looked overmatched (vs. the Broncos in London), a stretch to end the season when the team was non-competitive and the embarrassing mark of not coming up with an interception all season.

You add all of that into a tough schedule to start the 2026 season and people are going to wonder if Glenn will be still coaching by Halloween. A loss to Robert Saleh and the Titans in Week 1 will ratchet up the pressure, and that is followed by games with the Packers, Lions and Bears. The Jets will not be favored in any of those games.
