The NFL season is still more than six weeks away, but some coaches already face questions about their job security. For a few, such as the New York Jets’ Aaron Glenn, Tampa Bay’s Todd Bowles, and Cincinnati’s Zac Taylor, slow starts could make their seats pretty toasty early in make-or-break seasons.

Coaches on the Hot Seat

Todd Bowles, Buccaneers: Through four seasons with Tampa Bay, Bowles is 35-33 in the regular season and has won three NFC South titles. But last season’s collapse had some thinking Bowles’ days with the team were done. Instead, the Bucs opted to stick with him.

Aaron Glenn, Jets: The former Pro Bowl cornerback returned to New York as a head coach to lead the Jets back to respectability. Instead, Glenn became the first in team history to lose his first seven games in his debut season with the team, which went 3-14 and missed the playoffs for the 15th straight year.

Zac Taylor, Bengals: The Bengals have been notoriously slow starters in September under Taylor, but opened last season 2-0 and appeared on their way to putting that narrative to rest. A turf toe injury sidelined quarterback Joe Burrow for nine games and Cincinnati crawled to a 6-11 finish and a third straight season without a playoff appearance.
