The Jets have completed in-person interviews with Darrell Bevell and Greg Roman for their offensive coordinator position.

Bevell, 56, spent the past four seasons in Miami as the Dolphins' QB coach and passing game coordinator. He was the Jacksonville Jaguars' offensive coordinator in 2021 before taking over interim head coach duties for J-Ville's final four games. He also was the offensive coordinator in Detroit in 2019-20 before handling the reins as interim HC for the Lions' final five games in 2020. After starring at quarterback at Wisconsin, Bevell worked at the collegiate level for three schools before entering the NFL as an assistant QB coach with the Green Bay Packers from 2003-05. He held OC posts with the Minnesota Vikings (2006-10) and the Seattle Seahawks (2011-17). The Seahawks appeared in two Super Bowls during that time and Bevell was part of Seattle's Super Bowl XLVIII winner.

Roman, 53, has served as NFL offensive coordinator for 12 of the past 14 seasons with four teams -- Los Angeles Chargers (2024-25), Baltimore Ravens (2019-22), Buffalo Bills (2015-16) and San Francisco 49ers (2011-14). A starting offensive lineman at John Carroll, Roman got his start in coaching in 1995 as the Carolina Panthers' strength and conditioning assistant and defensive quality control coach. He also worked with the defensive backs and the linebackers. Roman moved to offense in 1997 before eventually serving as Carolina's offensive line coach in 2001. He was on the Houston Texans staff from 2002-05, spending two seasons each as the tight ends coach (2002-03) and quarterbacks coach (2004-05). Roman's first stop in Baltimore saw him handle assistant offensive line coach duties in 2006-07. The Atlantic City, NJ, native, who attended Holy Spirit HS in Absecon and was Stanford's associate head coach in 2009-10 under Jim Harbaugh, was the AP's Assistant Coach of the Year in 2019.

Last week, the Jets announced they had completed virtual interviews with Bevell, Roman, Ronald Curry, Frank Reich and Lunda Wells for the OC post.
