FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Get ready, Joe Douglas. All eyes are on you for the next several months.
The New York Jets general manager embarks on his first full offseason in charge, with the difficult and unenviable task of trying to improve a team that went 7-9 this season but was ravaged by injuries and inconsistency.
It all led to a ninth straight year without a playoff appearance and had many fans and media wondering if Adam Gase should be one and done with the Jets. Well, Gase is staying put, and now he and Douglas — hired in June after Mike Maccagnan was fired — have plenty of work to do to bring a sense of stability to a frustrated franchise.
