Bill Simmons tabs Aaron Glenn as one of worst coaches in NFL history: ‘I can’t believe how awful he is’
The New York Jets’ struggles under head coach Aaron Glenn have reached a new low after a 35-12 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, extending their losing streak to four games. Glenn’s two seasons with the franchise have been marked by baffling game-management choices and an inability to adapt after defeats, earning him widespread criticism from NFL analysts.
Bill Simmons, host of *The Bill Simmons Podcast*, ranked Glenn among the worst coaches in NFL history, calling his performance ‘unbelievably bad.’ Simmons noted Glenn’s 5-21 record surpasses that of Hue Jackson (11-44-1), placing him in elite company with historically inept coaches like Burt Bell (10-46) and Steve Spagnuolo (11-40). Even among two-year coaches, Glenn’s struggles stand out, with only four others—Brian Callahan (4-19), Marty Morningwig (5-27), Chris Palmer (5-27), and Rod Dowhower (5-24)—matching his dismal record.
The Jets’ brass have reportedly shown no interest in extending Glenn’s contract, signaling the end of his tenure despite his occasional defensive adjustments.
