The New York Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh back in October after the team got off to a 2-3 start. Things did not get better and last week when general manager Joe Douglas was also sent off as the Jets sit at 3-8 and need to rip off six consecutive victories against long odds to sneak into the playoffs. Serious questions about Aaron Rodgers's future with the franchise persist as he, like everyone else, is not getting any younger. In short, there's a tremendous amount of work to be done if the Jets want to compete in 2025, including hiring two people to fill these important vacated positions.
To help in that project they've retained The 33rd Team to support them in the search. ESPN's Adam Schefter was first to report their involvement, which will be spearheaded by former Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum and former Minnesota Vikings GM Rick Spielman.
