After leading the Green Bay Packers to a top-10 defense this season, Jeff Hafley is going to interview for the New York Jets' vacant head-coaching
According to multiple reports, the 45-year-old Jeff Hafley will interview with the New York Jets for head coach after spending the 2024 season with the Packers.

Hafley isn’t the first Packers coordinator to receive interest from other teams, as ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported earlier this week that offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich interviewed to be the next head coach of the Chicago Bears, though it’s believed Chicago will go with a more experienced head coach when they make their final decision.
The New York Jets interviewed Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores and quarterbacks coach Josh McCown and Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley on Friday for their head coach vacancy.
The Jets formally interviewed Ulbrich for their opening. Ulbrich was thrown into the role of interim head coach on Oct. 8 after Robert Saleh was fired. The Jets went 3-9 under Ulbrich and finished 5-12 overall. Ulbrich is very popular among the players and in the Jets’ building, but he is considered a long shot to keep the job.
