Reports: Jets Fire Offensive Coordinator John Morton

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The Jets are reportedly making a change at offensive coordinator.

According to multiple reports, the team has fired John Morton after one season leading the offense.

Jets making change at OC: Johnny Morton is out, per sources. Two potential replacements: former Steelers’ OC Todd Haley and Jets’ QB coach Jeremy Bates, who was well liked and respected in building last year.
