ATLANTA (AP) — With Bill Belichick set for a second interview, the Atlanta Falcons have talked with Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn about their vacant head coaching job.
The Falcons announced Friday they had completed a virtual interview with Glenn, who has led the Lions' defense for the past three seasons.
Glenn became the ninth candidate to interview with the Falcons, but all eyes were on Belichick amid reports that he was the team's top choice and had flown into Atlanta on one of owner Arthur Blank's private jets for a second interview.
The Falcons confirmed they were meeting further with Belichick, but said no additional details would be provided until the follow-up interview was completed.
