The NY Jets have long abided by the belief that a general manager and head coach should work in lock-step with each other, side by side as partners. However, as of this past Thursday, that notion has officially been changed.
No longer will Jets ownership ask their GM and head coach to report equally to Woody and Christopher Johnson. Instead, they will return to a more traditional structure — one that sees the three phases of Jets’ management report in a hierarchy.
During Robert Saleh’s introductory press conference, Christopher Johnson was asked by reporters if the organization’s power structure would finally be changed with Saleh on board.
