Summary
The New York Jets have officially fired General Manager Joe Douglas following a disappointing 3-8 season. Owner Woody Johnson appointed Phil Savage as interim GM. This decision comes after Coach Robert Saleh's firing weeks earlier. Douglas's tenure, marked by a 30-64 record since 2019, resulted in a 14-year playoff drought. Johnson is determined to revamp the team as they search for a new GM to address the lack of playoff appearances since 2010. The franchise aims for a complete overhaul as they continue to struggle.
