Weeks after getting it wrong in reporting that the New York Jets had hired Clint Hurtt to come on board as their linebackers coach, NFL insider Alex Marvez says there’s a “done deal” for the Jets to add Hall of Fame linebacker Kevin Greene to fill that same spot.

The addition of a coach as outgoing as Greene can only be a good thing for a defense that grossly under-achieved last season, and his presence should be felt by youngsters Jordan Jenkins and Lorenzo Mauldin.
