About this listen

New Head Coach Aaron Glenn made perhaps his most high-profile coaching hire in bringing in veteran Defensive Coordinator Steve Wilks to run the schemes Glenn implemented in Detroit with growing success. Wilks is well-liked and well-traveled, having been the rare NFL head coach sacked after just one season in Arizona. In the six years since his surprising dismissal from the desert, he has assisted for the Cleveland Browns, Carolina Panthers, and was the DC for the NFC champion San Francisco 49ers just two seasons ago.

While Robert Saleh failed to lead New York into becoming a winner, a bright spot of his and former interim HC Jeff Ulbrich’s tenure was building a strong defensive unit at all three levels. What does Wilks do to improve what’s arguably the strength of the squad – and is he driving, or more of a passenger on the Aaron Glenn bus to East Rutherford?

Counselors Richard and Walz will examine the resume of Steve Wilks and whether he can guide a young group filled with explosive talent and recent All-Pros to consistent contention. The Honorable Judge CJ Pukala, host of The 4 Line, assesses the case for and against the new leader of the Jets' “D.”
