The Jets have named Frank Bush as their new interim defensive coordinator, as Connor Hughes of The Athletic tweets. Bush will take over for Gregg Williams, who was given the hook on Monday morning.

Bush has served as Adam Gase‘s assistant head coach and inside linebackers coach in New York over the last two years. Prior to that, he was Gase’s AHC/LB coach in Miami and the DC for the Texans in 2009 and 2010. He may have an opportunity to carve out a future role with the Jets, though it’s unlikely that his rabbi will be part of the plan in 2021.
The Jets are 0-12 following Sunday’s heartbreaking loss, which proved to be the final straw for Williams. Instead of properly defending against a Hail Mary, Williams sent the house. Ultimately, that left speedster Henry Ruggs wide open to score the game-winning touchdown.
Bush’s first assignment as interim DC will come this Sunday in Seattle. The Jets currently stand as +14 underdogs against the 8-4 Seahawks.
How the f does case still have a job?
There are still games to lose
How is clergy involved? Has Adam Gase been ordained?
Right?!
Rabbi means teacher. I actually thought it was clever
Rabbi, guru, godfather or mentor: in sports and business terms all are synonyms. Gase is different, he is more of a sorcerer or conman.
I am not a Gase fan but he is working with a roster that is lacking talent. No weapons to speak of on offense and the D has some young players but not a lot of talent their either. He is playing in D one with D2 players. Let him finish out the year, clean house and start fresh.
Or keep Douglas and hire Richie Kotite
Don’t dare try to win a game! Or you’ll suffer the same fate as Williams!
you think they would fire him for winning a game and screwing up their draft? i think they should.
No way they bring in someone to replace him as he’s the only 1 who can take them to 0-16.
