During his post-practice media availability Friday, Jets interim coach Jeff Ulbrich said he believes he will have “an opportunity” to interview with owner Woody Johnson and his advisers for the head-coaching position. “I think next week I’ll be given an opportunity at some point,” Ulbrich said. “And for sure, I look forward to that.”

The Atlanta Falcons continued their search for a defensive coordinator by conducting a virtual interview with New York Jets interim coach and defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich.

Former head coach Robert Saleh was fired by the team all the way back in October. At the time, New York had a 2-3 record. After turning things over to interim Jeff Ulbrich, it didn’t go much better. The Jets finished the 2024 NFL season at 5-12.

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.

Bobby Slowik had a busy day. The Houston Texans' offensive coordinator interviewed with the New York Jets for their open head coaching position Thursday, the team announced. The interview took place virtually as he simultaneously prepares for the Texans' playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday.

The Atlanta Falcons have completed another interview for their defensive coordinator vacancy, the team announced on Wednesday evening. New York Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich is the second candidate officially interviewed by Atlanta over the past week.
