The New York Jets hired Frank Reich as their offensive coordinator on Wednesday morning.

The move comes a week after the Jets fired offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand following a 3-14 season.

'Frank has a rare combination of experience, creativity, and calm under pressure,' Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said in a statement released by the team. 'He's lived this game from every angle -- as a quarterback in this league and as a coach who's led offenses at the highest level. He is unique in his ability to see the game for what it is right now and adapt when appropriate. Frank understands offense and how to utilize the strengths of players. I am looking forward to how he will help this team have success.'

Reich, 64, interviewed with the Jets last week and had an in-person interview on Tuesday. He will become the 12th different play-caller in a 16-year span for New York.

Reich and Glenn will reunite after being teammates on a dismal 1-15 Jets team in 1996. Reich started seven games while replacing an injured Neil O'Donnell.

Reich served as Stanford's interim head coach in 2025, two years after he was fired following a 1-10 start with the Carolina Panthers. He spent 2018-22 as head coach of the Indianapolis Colts and has an overall record of 41-43-1.

Reich enjoyed success as the offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles from 2016-17, helping the team to a Super Bowl LII victory while working with quarterbacks Carson Wentz and Nick Foles. Reich also spent time as the offensive coordinator for the then-San Diego Chargers (2014-15).

Under Engstrand, the Jets were dead last in the NFL in passing yards per game (140.3) this season. They ranked 29th in the NFL in points (17.6) and total yards (263.6).
