NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) — Todd Bowles is already making big changes for the New York Jets.
The team announced Wednesday that the coach fired special teams coordinator Bobby April and assistant coaches Steve Hagen and Ron Heller after the Jets missed the playoffs despite a 10-6 season.
Bowles made the moves following season-ending meetings with his coaching staff after saying Monday in his final news conference that he expected all of his assistants to return.
“I decided that changes were necessary in these areas,” Bowles said in a statement issued by the team.
