Jets Interview Candidates for GM Position

The New York Jets are actively searching for a new general manager following the firing of Joe Douglas, who led the team to a disappointing 30-64 record over five seasons. They have interviewed 15 candidates so far, including Buffalo Bills assistant GM Brian Gaine and Green Bay Packers executive Jon-Eric Sullivan. Gaine has a history with the Jets as a former scout and has previously served as GM for the Houston Texans, while Sullivan has extensive experience within the Packers' front office. Additionally, there is significant discussion around potential head coaching candidates, with pundits suggesting the Jets should consider established coaches like Pete Carroll and Mike McCarthy, who have not yet been interviewed. The Jets aim to finalize their GM selection before in-person head coaching interviews begin next week. The team's management is also receiving assistance from a consulting group led by former Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum in their search efforts.
