The New York Jets are undergoing a significant defensive overhaul, including trading key players and demoting linebacker Quincy Williams due to underperformance, amidst a week of upheaval and strategic rebuilding for the future.
Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera fired defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio and defensive backs coach Brent Vieselmeyer after a disappointing loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
