Joe Douglas owns a 27-56 record as the general manager of the New York Jets.
If you take out a 7-9 season in 2019 where he did not join the team until June and therefore did not run the draft or free agency, Douglas’ record stoops to an abysmal 20-47 in four full seasons. That’s a win percentage of .299.
When your win percentage sounds like the price of a gallon of milk, it’s never a good thing. (Unless you live in Hawaii, where the average cost is $5.98.)
There are a multitude of reasons for Douglas’ pitiful record.
