This offseason, Mike Maccagnan allowed both of the New York Jets stand out special teamers to walk out the door. Jason Myers, who had the best year of his career last year and set an NFL record for 50-plus yard field goals in a single season, is now in Seattle. Meanwhile, all-pro returner Andre Roberts, also coming off a career year, is now with the division rival-Buffalo Bills.
Those moves alone aren’t the only moves that put the Jets in the position they’re in now.
Myers, who had been awful for the majority of his career prior to last season, is now making just under $4 million per year.
