Adam Gase expected to be hired as new Jets head coach, sources say

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets are expected to hire Adam Gase as their new head coach, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter and Jeff Darlington.

The Jets reached out to Gase soon after he was fired by the Miami Dolphins on Dec. 31. He was only 23-25 in three seasons, but he dominated the Jets, winning five of six meetings.

Gase becomes their first head coach since Bill Parcells (1997) with NFL head-coaching experience. He also fills the need for an offensive-minded coach, something they haven't had since Rich Kotite (1995-1996).
