The jump from position coach to head coach is unusual but not unprecedented. A great example of it working is Andy Reid, who went from Packers quarterbacks coach to Eagles head coach in 1999. Reid has won 273 regular season games, the fourth most in NFL history, and has won three Super Bowls with the Chiefs.

The New York Jets interviewed Pittsburgh Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik for their head coach position Thursday. The meetings with Smith and Slowik gave the Jets 12 known candidates with whom they've spoken about their vacancy.

The Jets have cast a wide net in their search for a new head coach, but one of their intended candidates for the job was not interested in the opportunity to speak to them.
The Jets also are expected to interview Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores, Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady, Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley, Commanders defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr., Vikings quarterbacks coach Josh McCown and 49ers quarterbacks coach Brian Griese.
Kevin O’Connell, who led the Minnesota Vikings to the second-most victories in a season in franchise history, is the 2024 NFL Coach of the Year, chosen in voting conducted by the Professional Football Writers of America (PFWA).
