NFL 2026 coaching and quarterback changes

Entities: Todd Bowles · Geno Smith · Kirk Cousins · Aaron Glenn · Kyler Murray

Overview

As the 2026 NFL season approaches, quarterbacks are under heightened scrutiny, with media reports flagging a "hot‑seat" environment for signal‑callers. This pressure extends to head coaches, many of whom face intensified offseason evaluation.

Key figures highlighted include Jets rookie coach Aaron Glenn, Buccaneers’ Todd Bowles, and Bengals’ Zac Taylor, each criticized for recent under‑performance. Veteran quarterbacks are also in flux: Geno Smith is projected to start for the Jets, Kirk Cousins is expected to fill in for the Raiders temporarily, and Kyler Murray is slated to become Minnesota’s starter after seven years in Arizona. The league’s trend of moving experienced QBs has yielded mixed outcomes, influencing both coaching decisions and betting markets ahead of the next season.
