The Jets are ramping up their search for a new general manager and should begin interviewing candidates soon.
There is no rush since they are the only team in the NFL looking for a GM and face no competition. It is also a point on the calendar when the GM’s work decreases greatly.
The search could take a few weeks as Jets CEO Christopher Johnson searches for the “strategic thinker” he said he wants to replace Mike Maccagnan, who was fired Wednesday after a little more than four years on the job.
After Johnson fired Maccagnan, he said he believes the Jets won’t have a problem attracting good candidates.
