Glenn runs a Detroit Lions defense that is 23rd in points allowed and 15th in yards allowed this season. But Glenn was rated the No. 1 defensive coordinator in the league by the NFLPA poll.
The NFLPA said the survey was given from Aug. 28 to Nov. 16, 2023. There were 864 offensive players, 774 defensive players and 1,025 special teams players who answered the survey. It was clearly based on more than statistical results.
Glenn has been on the hot seat at times in his three seasons as Lions defensive coordinator. In 2021 and 2022, the Lions finished in the bottom five of the NFL in yards allowed and points allowed. There has been improvement this season, and the Lions won the NFC North. Players respect Glenn, who played 15 NFL seasons as a defensive back.
