Aaron Glenn | Dave Herman |
DB | OG–OT |
1994–2001 | 1964–1973 |
Two-time Pro-Bowler (1997, 1998). Sixth in voting for 1994 AP Defensive Rookie of the Year. Three playoff games as a Jet (one start). Had a 100-yard interception return for a touchdown in 1996. New York Jets All-Time Four-Decade Team. | Super Bowl III champion. Two-time AFL All-Star (1968, 1969). Three-time All-AFL (1967, 1968, 1969). In a dramatic move that somehow paid off, for Super Bowl III, he was moved from guard to tackle to contain Bubba Smith, helping Joe Namath and Matt Snell to have outstanding games. |
As Detroit Lions defensive coordinator has been considered instrumental in the team's turnaround, and is widely assumed to be in line for a future head coaching opportunity. | Was also selected by the Giants in the NFL draft, but claimed to have signed with the Jets because they offered him $100 more in bonus money. |
