Scott Fitterer interviewed by Jets for GM opening

The Jets conducted the first interview for their general manager opening.

They met with Seahawks co-director of player personnel Scott Fitterer on Friday, the team announced. Fitterer has been with the Seahawks since 2001, when he started as an area scout.

Other candidates expected to interview with the Jets in the coming days are Bears assistant director of player personnel Champ Kelly, Eagles director of player personnel Joe Douglas and Saints director of pro scouting Terry Fontenot.

Douglas, considered by many the leading candidate, reportedly will interview with the Jets Sunday.

The Jets could add another name or two to their list.
