EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork) — The Todd Bowles era in New York is over.
The Jets officially fired their head coach on Sunday night, just hours after a 38-3 season-ending loss to the New England Patriots.
The move was expected. Bowles had a disappointing four-year tenure with the Jets. After a 10-6 season in 2015, he managed just a 14-34 record over the last three years.
Despite the team showing signs of improvement, especially rookie Sam Darnold establishing himself as a franchise quarterback, a 4-12 was nowhere near good enough to save the 55-year-old Bowles’ job.
