Aaron Curry, former linebackers coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers, is set to join the New York Jets in the same role, according to NFL insider Ian Rapoport. This move marks a significant addition to the Jets’ coaching staff as they continue to strengthen their defensive unit for the upcoming season.

Curry, a former NFL linebacker and highly regarded coach, spent the previous season with the Steelers, helping develop their linebacker corps. His expertise in player development and defensive schemes makes him a valuable asset to the Jets, who are looking to build a more dominant defense under head coach Robert Saleh. With New York aiming to take the next step in their defensive evolution, Curry’s presence could play a crucial role in shaping their linebacker group.

The Jets have been focused on enhancing their defensive coaching staff to maximize the potential of their roster. Curry’s experience, both as a player and coach, brings fresh insight that could help elevate the team’s performance in the AFC East. As the Jets prepare for the new season, all eyes will be on how Curry’s impact translates to the field and contributes to the team’s defensive success.
