Reports: Jets fire general manager Joe Douglas
The New York Jets’ season of upheaval continued Tuesday with the reported firing of general manager Joe Douglas.
The Jets (3-8) fired head coach Robert Saleh on Oct. 8 and are 1-5 under interim coach Jeff Ulbrich.
New York headed into its bye week with a 28-27 loss at home against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
Douglas, 48, signed a six-year contract to become the Jets GM in June 2019. Since then, New York has compiled a record of 30-64 with zero playoff appearances, continuing a drought that dates back to 2010.
This season began with Super Bowl aspirations as four-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers returned from an Achilles injury. Instead, the offense ranks 26th in the NFL in scoring (18.5 ppg) and yards (294.4).
