Jets seek interview with DC Joe Whitt Jr. commanders.


The Jets have been interviewing candidates for their next head coach for some time now, but they’re not done adding names to the list.

NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero reports that they are requested an interview with Commanders defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. This is the first time Whitt’s name has come up with a head coaching vacancy this offseason.

Whitt joined Dan Quinn in Washington this season after spending the past three years as the Cowboys’ passing game coordinator and assistant coach. He had similar roles with the Falcons, Bears and Packers before moving to Dallas in 2021.

The Jets interviewed nine other candidates for the job and sought a number of other interviews with assistants like Whitt who were not available to interview ahead of the playoffs.
