As the story goes, the Jets seemingly had their newest head coach hired in Baylor’s Matt Rhule in January of 2019. However, just before the two sides could come to an agreement, the Jets insisted that Rhule was not allowed to pick his own coordinators.
Rhule, understandably feeling slighted, refused the offer and returned to Baylor for one more season, only to resurface the following offseason and join the Carolina Panthers.
Of course, the Jets would end up going with their second choice, Adam Gase, who was allowed to pick his own coordinators. He chose Dowell Loggains and a bunch of his former buddies from his Miami Dolphins staff.
Rhule, on the other hand, put together one of the most highly-praised staffs in football once Carolina allowed him to do what the Jets wouldn’t. And one such name that is already making significant waves is offensive coordinator Joe Brady.
At just 31-years-old, Brady has major Sean McVay vibes to him and that’s not a terrible comparison at all. Brady was the catalyst behind LSU’s revamped offense in 2019 serving as the team’s passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach.
Many have credited him with transforming Joe Burrow from middling college football quarterback to a Heisman winner and No. 1 overall draft pick.
While it may be a little early for a head coach position, one surely awaits him in the future if he continues on this trajectory. For that reason, he isn’t the top choice, but he certainly would be a fun one.
