Hafley joined Green Bay in 2024 after a stint in college football

Were you tired of the New York Jets being the Packers East? Well, get ready for another helping anyway.

Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer reported on Wednesday that the Jets have requested to speak to Green Bay's defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley for their head coaching opening. Hafley has spent all of one year with the Packers after leaving his position as Boston College’s head coach to return to the NFL level, where he coached from 2012 to 2018.

Officially, the Jets have already interviewed 10 candidates for their job with several others having interviews reportedly scheduled down the line. So Hafley, who hasn’t been interviewed for any other openings around the league, isn’t exactly the favorite here. It’s anyone’s guess who the Jets want, though, as the search is wide open.

In his first year as the Packers’ defensive coordinator, Hafley’s unit was the fourth-best in the league in defensive EPA/play , only behind the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings in the NFC. For perspective, the team was 24th in the same stat last season under former defensive coordinator Joe Barry. The team was balanced in the pass and run game too, as they ranked seventh versus the pass this season and eighth against the run.

Interestingly enough, Packers executive vice president of player personnel Jon-Eric Sullivan has also interviewed to be the Jets’ general manager . If for whatever reason Sullivan lands the Jets’ job — one of only two gigs with general manager and head coaching vacancies — maybe Hafley’s name will catch a little more steam.

packerfanoutwest (5h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

Zero2Cool (6h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat

wpr (6h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.

wpr (6h) : now 3

Zero2Cool (7h) : Who? What?

beast (16h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?

Martha Careful (20h) : meh

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : It's so awesome.

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
