Edwards already is set to meet Jets



DETROIT -- The Lions have contacted Tampa Bay Buccaneers assistant coach Herman Edwards about Detroit's head coaching job and are trying to schedule a meeting, Edwards' agent Ray Anderson said Friday.

Gary Moeller signed a three-year contract as the Lions' head coach when he replaced Bobby Ross midway though the 2000 season, but new general manager Matt Millen might want to make a change. However, Millen said at the news conference to announce his hiring that Moeller would remain as coach.

Edwards is scheduled to meet with the New York Jets about their head coaching job Sunday.
