How the story limits the hires of Raiders ‘Carroll, Jets’ Glenn

On By Littum

On Friday, it was reported that Las Vegas Raiders and Super Bowl-winning head coach Pete Carroll agreed to a three-year deal for him to become their next head coach.

Carroll as over 30 years of NFL experience. How long is it right? His first head coach performance was with the New York Jets in 1994. His first draft choice ever as head coach? Defensive Back Aaron Glenn Out of Texas A&M as No. 12 overall.

Over 30 years later, Glenn was just hired as head coach – for Jets. Both Carroll and Glenn, once train and player, are now contemporary in AFC, employed in the same cycle.

Carroll’s hiring was touted by CBS Sports’ Will Brinson as the right move.

“Tear on his age and his devotion to run football and play defense, all you want but Carroll is a guy winning football matches,” he wrote. “His steadfast belief in the Compete mantra is perfect for Raiders where they are right now, and drifting on the wind in the desert without any real hope for the future. He who took this job went into a division Buzzsaw, with Andy Reid, Sean Payton and Jim Harbaugh, the other three franchises staffing the AFC West bill in that regard. ”

With regard to the No. 12 election, Glenn was the first in a large number of Carroll-Draft hits. For eight seasons with Jets, Glenn achieved 24 interceptions and was voted three Pro Bowls. Glenn ended with 41 career interceptions after staying with Houston, Dallas, Jacksonville and New Orleans.

Glenn took a way from the defensive back coach to one of the league’s best defensive coordinators for Detroit Lions, and led Dan Campbell’s defense to an NFC title playing and NFC North title in 2023 and a record of 15-2, NFC North- Title and No. 1 Playoff-Seed in 2024.

What Glenn was able to do with Lion’s defense despite an insurmountable amount of damage was nothing short of incredible.
