Aaron Glenn’s New York Jets staff will see even more upheaval in 2026.
The Jets on Tuesday parted ways with offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand, according to multiple reports.
The decision comes amid reports that Engstrand was unlikely to retain his play-calling role next season if he had remained with the team. After Glenn and Engstrand had multiple conversations about how and whether to proceed, the two sides instead opted to split, according to multiple reports.
The Jets last week fired quarterbacks coach Charles London, pass game coordinator Scott Turner, linebackers coach Aaron Curry, defensive line coach Eric Washington, assistant defensive backs coach Dre Bly, defensive assistant Alonso Escalante and defensive assistant Roosevelt Williams.
Glenn’s inaugural season at the helm proved far rockier than the coaching staff anticipated, with the team being the last in the NFL to notch a win after an 0-7 start. Quarterback Justin Fields drew significant scrutiny, including from owner and chairman Woody Johnson, before being benched in November.
New York finished ranked 29th in total yards and scoring.
Engstrand, 43, followed Glenn over from the Detroit Lions, where he served as the team’s passing game coordinator for the prior two seasons.
