The NFL continues to churn along. We now have the Conference Championship matchups set. Meanwhile, a handful of teams continue to seek a new head coach as they watch the playoffs unfold.

Schultz says that Jerry Jones holds Glenn in especially high regard. It sounds like he is certainly on their radar.

New Orleans still must fulfill the Rooney Rule, which states that "Clubs must conduct an in-person interview with at least two external diverse — minority and/or female — candidates for any GM or head coaching interview."

Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn seems to be one of the leading candidates for the job in […]
