Embree has filled that role with the Jets since 2021. The move comes as New York will retain offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett and offensive line coach Keith Carter.

Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports that Duce Staley visited the Jets facility last Thursday and had dinner with head coach Robert Saleh. Staley was previously assistant head coach/running backs coach for the Panthers, but he and Carolina parted ways in November.

Staley was a part of the Eagles coaching staff from 2011-20 in a variety of roles, including special teams quality control coach, running backs coach and assistant head coach. He had a 10-year NFL career as a running back, seven of which he spent in Philadelphia.
