Patriots request interview with Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, per report
Briefly

The New England Patriots are actively pursuing Detroit Lions' defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn for their head coach vacancy. Glenn is a hot candidate, receiving requests from all six NFL teams with openings, showcasing his rising profile in the league. The Patriots aim to improve their performance after a disappointing season with a 4-13 record and hope Glenn's successful tenure as a coordinator can revive their fortunes.
Glenn's defense in Detroit was impressive, finishing the regular season allowing the lowest passer rating in the league at 82.0. His unit was resilient despite key injuries, demonstrating his ability to maintain competitive performance and effectively manage defensive schemes. This success has made him a top choice for teams seeking to bolster their coaching staff.
Having been a former player and a three-time Pro Bowl cornerback, Glenn possesses extensive knowledge of the game. His career encompassed stops with several NFL teams, leading to a strong foundation for his coaching responsibilities. His rich experience combined with his recent success as a coordinator makes him a compelling candidate for the Patriots.
The Patriots have faced significant changes following Jerod Mayo’s firing after just one season. They are keen to explore various coaching options, having conducted interviews with potential candidates like Pep Hamilton and Byron Leftwich, showcasing their thorough approach to finding the right leadership to reverse their fortunes.
