Tanner Engstrand hired as NY Jets offensive coordinator

NEW YORK -- The New York Jets hired Detroit Lions passing game coordinator Tanner Engstrand as their offensive coordinator and Denver Broncos assistant special teams coach Chris Banjo as their special teams coordinator on Friday.

Former San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Steve Wilks agreed to terms Wednesday to take that same job with the Jets.

The hirings give new Jets coach Aaron Glenn his three coordinators as he begins assembling his staff.
