NY Jets, Jeremy Pruitt
The NY Jets are reportedly adding an experienced college coach to their coaching staff in the form of former Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt.
As first reported by The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman, the Jets are “working on a deal” with Pruitt to join new head coach Robert Saleh’s staff. uSTADIUM is reporting that Pruitt will be the Jets’ new assistant defensive backs coach.
Pruitt most recently served as the head coach at the University of Tennessee from 2018 to 2020 before being fired earlier this month as a result of his part in a recruiting scandal that found the ex-Alabama coach violated several policies.
