The Kansas City Chiefs aren't the only NFL team getting rid of employees.

The New York Jets fired 30 members of their sales department last week, according to the New York Daily News.

The Jets had added employees on a temporary basis to try to sell personal seat licenses. With a potential lockout looming, that likely affected the Jets' staffing needs.

Per the report, the Jets' priority currently is to sell club seats. PSLs do remain unsold, but it's unclear how many are available.

Baltimore Ravens team president Dick Cass recently announced that the AFC North club won't be laying off employees or raising ticket prices.
