Todd Bowles would love nothing more than to reunite with Keith Armstrong. But according to sources, the Falcons special teams coordinator, and longtime friend of the Jets head coach, isn’t leaving Atlanta for New Jersey.
Speculation began swirling about a reunion between the two Temple alums after Bowles surprisingly fired Jets special teams coordinator Bobby April on Wednesday after just one season.
Shortly after Bowles accepted the Jets job in January 2014, he tried to get Armstrong on board. But the Falcons denied the Jets’ interview request.
Armstrong, 52, played with Bowles at Temple under current Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians.
