There are a number of teams around the NFL who likely have head coaches on the hot seat at the moment. It wouldn't be surprising if the New York Jets (2-6) and Washington Commanders (2-4-1) were among them.
Las Vegas Raiders cornerback Eric Stokes got picked on by New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith in Week 8, but so did several other cornerbacks.
New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn made clear that the team is not interested in trading Breece Hall, despite speculation amid Braelon Allen's breakout.
In Week 8, the New York Jets fall 38-33 to the Las Vegas Raiders, slipping to 2-6 and jeopardizing their AFC playoff hopes. Safety Minkah Fitzpatrick bluntly blames “bad penalties, bad mistakes” and labels the loss as typical “Jets being Jets,” noting six penalties that yielded two Raiders first downs. He also criticized the defense’s inability to stop Kirk Cousins, Brock Bowers and the Raiders’ passing attack, which posted 238 yards and two touchdowns. Fitzpatrick’s comments put pressure on defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, whose future could be in doubt if the team’s error‑prone play continues.
New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn faces mounting fan backlash after the team slips to 2‑6 with a 38‑33 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8. Glenn’s record has dropped to 5‑20 overall and he’s winless in eight AFC East games, yet he insists job security isn’t on his mind, focusing on "improving this team." He cites third‑down penalties and a poor red‑zone conversion (2 of 6) as key issues. Owner Woody Johnson may wait until season’s end to decide, though former Steelers coach Mike Tomlin is rumored as a replacement. Glenn will coach the Jets against the Kansas City Chiefs on Nov 8.
A cryptic message, breakout backup and looming deadline create fresh intrigue.
After a 38-33 home loss to Las Vegas in Week 8, the New York Jets face speculation about a potential trade of running back Breece Hall before the November 5 deadline. Head coach Aaron Glenn publicly dismissed any trade talks, emphasizing the team’s commitment to retaining top talent. Insider Ian Rapoport confirmed Hall is cleared from a quad injury and likely to play next week, noting that the Jets have depth at running back with Braelon Allen’s 147-yard, one‑touchdown performance against the Raiders. With a road showdown against the Chiefs looming, the Jets appear set to keep Hall and other key players.
Sportsnaut ranks the six NFL head coaches most likely to be fired by season’s end after Week 8. Leading the list is New York Jets’ Aaron Glenn, whose defense has surrendered 30.7 points per game and a shocking 107‑6 halftime point differential, prompting doubts despite ownership’s earlier optimism. Indianapolis Colts’ Shane Steichen follows, as a 42‑7 loss to Jacksonville and a roster-clearout by the interim GM leave the team looking like the league’s bottom‑dog. Washington Commanders’ Dan Quinn, Philadelphia Eagles’ Nick Sirianna, and two other unnamed coaches round out the hot‑seat rankings, with each facing mounting pressure from poor performances and front‑office turmoil.
There has been plenty of rumors flying around regarding Breece Hall.
Darren Mougey and the New York Jets may end up with three top-10 picks after the Indianapolis Colts and Dallas Cowboys also lost in Week 8.

The Las Vegas Raiders had more positives than negatives in their bounce-back win against the New York Jets in Week 8 of the 2026 NFL season.
The New York Jets may need to look to one of these five teams if they want to part ways with running back Breece Hall following the emergence of Braelon Allen.
The New York Jets, mired in a losing 2026 season, could make NFL Draft history by entering the 2027 draft with three top‑10 picks—a feat never achieved in the common‑draft era. NFL insider Adam Schefter projects the Jets at 5th, 6th and 10th overall if the order were set today, and upcoming games could push those slots even higher. A 38‑33 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders deepens their playoff woes but bolsters their draft leverage, giving General Manager Darren Mougey the chance to rebuild with elite talent at quarterback, offensive line or defense, or to trade for additional assets.
Fantasy owners looking to stream defenses for Week 9 get five under‑used options. The Chiefs (15th, 5.4 pts/game) face a low‑scoring Jets unit; the 49ers (10th, 7.0 pts) host a high‑powered Raiders offense; the Giants (20th, 5.1 pts) return from a bye against struggling Eagles; the Lions (25th, 4.0 pts) meet a 31st‑ranked Dolphins attack; and the Saints (23rd, 4.1 pts) tackle a 29th‑ranked Browns. All are owned in less than 55% of ESPN leagues, making them potential waiver‑wire steals.
It used to be easy; with 16 games on the NFL schedule, fans and analysts could engage in halfway-point reflection after eight games.

The New York Jets fall to 2-6 after a 38-33 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8, with their defense taking most of the blame. Despite a solid offensive showing—Braelon Allen’s 147 rushing yards and Adonai Mitchell’s 142 receiving yards—Aaron Glenn’s unit allowed 33 points, yielding only one sack and struggling to contain Kirk Cousins (141.0 passer rating) and tight end Brock Bowers. A 95-yard kickoff return TD by Dylan Laube further swung momentum. The article criticizes Glenn’s play‑calling, the front seven’s lack of pressure, and special‑teams lapses, urging immediate adjustments to salvage the season.
The Baltimore Ravens are reportedly eyeing Bears backup quarterback Tyson Bagent as they grapple with a quarterback crisis after injuries to Lamar Jackson and Tyler Huntley in a 36-10 loss to Buffalo. Bagent, praised by Ravens offensive coordinator Declan Doyle—who coached him in Chicago—offers familiarity with the offense and strong study habits. Chicago coach Matt Nagy and OC Bill Taylor also commend his preparation and quick grasp of systems, citing solid performances like 268 yards against the Jets.
