New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn insisted Monday he is not worried about his job security despite the team's three-game losing streak and 2-6 record. Speaking on a video conference from Florham Park, N.J., Glenn said his focus remains on weekly improvement rather than external pressure.
"I understand how this league is," Glenn said. "My first job is each week improving this team."
Overall, Glenn is 5-20 with the Jets. Only the Tennessee Titans (4-21) have a worse record over the same span. Chairman Woody Johnson, who has endured 10 straight losing seasons, will make the ultimate decision on Glenn's future. Johnson has made only one in-season coaching change in 26 years of ownership, firing Robert Saleh five games into the 2024 season.
The schedule toughens this week with road games against the Kansas City Chiefs (5-2) and the Buffalo Bills (6-1). Players like linebacker Demario Davis and center Josh Myers have voiced support for Glenn, who received a five-year contract. The Jets have lost five games by a combined 25 points and continue to struggle in the red zone and two-minute situations.
"We have to win," Glenn said. "But we still have nine games left."
