The NFL coaches have stolen the show through three weeks with unique moments. Aaron Glenn may have surpassed them all with his sprint and dance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The New York Jets coach celebrated excitedly after his special teams came up with a clutch play. They blocked a field goal attempt by Tampa Bay kicker Chase McLaughlin and then returned it for a touchdown. This set up the Jets to take the lead on an extra point with 1:46 remaining in the game.
While Will McDonald IV raced his way to the end zone, Glenn sprinted down the sideline with his right hand in the air. He then began strutting and dancing as he reached the 10-yard line.

"You bet Aaron Glenn is happy," Analyst Jonathan Vilma said while calling the game alongside play-by-play man Kenny Albert. He's running a 4.5 (second 40-yard dash), Kenny, chasing down Will McDonald for that touchdown. Man..."
Unfortunately for the Jets head coach, this blocked field goal and touchdown did not deliver the team's first win of the season. They faced off with quarterback Baker Mayfield, who has routinely delivered clutch, game-winning drives since taking over as the Buccaneers' starter in 2023.
This includes three game-winning drives to start the 2025 season and take the Buccaneers to its first 3-0 start since 2005.
Mayfield got the ball back with just over 1:40 remaining in the game. He missed on his first pass attempt but then connected with rookie Emeka Egbuka for a 28-yard gain. He then found Sterling Shepard for 20 yards to set the Buccaneers up on the 18-yard line. One short rushing attempt and one kneel down later, McLaughlin kicked the game-winning field goal.
The Jets have taken two of their first three games down to the final seconds while showing more fight than in past seasons. However, the team has still fallen to 0-3 after losses to the Steelers, Bills, and Buccaneers. Their next battle will be against the rival Dolphins.
