FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — New York Jets chairman/CEO Christopher Johnson believes Adam Gase was the right choice to be the team’s head coach — despite some heavy criticism from fans who preferred other candidates.
Gase was formally introduced Monday after he was hired by the Jets last Friday, beating out the likes of Mike McCarthy, Todd Monken and Matt Rhule.
