Chris Olave's brother reacts to Saints HC target Aaron Glenn's comments on coaching preference

Chris Olave's New Orleans Saints are looking for a new head coach. The Saints failed to make the playoffs in Dennis Allen's first two seasons in charge and he was dismissed after a 2-7 start last year. Interim coach Darren Rizzi went 3-5 and is expected to be replaced ahead of the 2025 season.

One of the main candidates in the coaching cycle is Aaron Glenn, the defensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions. Glenn spent five years as the defensive backs coach for the Saints before linking up with Dan Campbell in Detroit. He was part of the Saints roster during the 2008 season.

However, Glenn is reportedly eyeing the New York Jets job.

After the report emerged, Chris Olave's brother, Josh Olave, reacted with a single emoji.

Glenn is not allowed to interview with any more teams, as Detroit returns to action this week following a wild-card round bye. The Lions face the Washington Commanders in the divisional round on Saturday.

Aaron Glenn on being described as a "defensive coach"

Both of the Lions' coordinators are among the best in their respective roles. However, the message they want to send out is clear: they don't know about just one side of the ball.

Glenn spoke at length about why he's prepared to take over a team as a head coach, and not a coordinator:

"Here's the one thing that I will say about myself," he said on Wednesday. "I'm a coach, I just happen to be on defense. I understand the offense just as well as a number of people. So, if you want to hire me, you're going to hire a coach, you're not going to hire a defensive coach. I'm going to talk to the offense just as much as I'm going to talk to the defense."

Under Glenn, the Lions defense developed into a formidable unit, allowing the seventh-fewest points per game (20.1) in the regular season.
