Report: Jets interested in Baylor's Rhule for HC vacancy

The New York Jets are interested in Baylor's Matt Rhule for their vacant head-coaching position, though it's unclear if an interview has been scheduled, a source told ESPN's Dan Graziano.

Rhule is coming off a 7-6 campaign with the Bears after going 1-11 in his first season. He inherited a mess at Baylor, as the school was recovering from the sexual assault scandal that overshadowed the Art Briles era.

Rhule has been credited with cleaning up the program while leading it back to respectability in a short time. He produced similar results at Temple, going 2-10 in his first year before rattling off a 6-6 season and then a pair of 10-win campaigns.

The Jets interviewed former Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase Friday, and are expected to meet with Dallas Cowboys defensive assistant Kris Richard Sunday.

New York posted a 4-12 record under Todd Bowles in 2018.
