Reports: Jets interview Joe Lombardi, Pat Shurmur for offensive coordinator | ProFootballTalk
Lombardi has been with the Saints since 2007 and has been the quarterbacks coach since 2009. It should go without saying that a move to the Jets would leave Lombardi with a lot less to work with at quarterback.
