Yeah. I'd still rather put a bit of credence in a story where someone is quoted directly than one writer talking about whispers from some other group of unnamed "sources." Your mileage, of course, may vary.
Joe and Evan just announced on the FAN that Mac was let go. In the interim, Gase is the GM. Bombshell!!!
Jesus Christ.... I'm sure we are gonna get killed in the media and from everyone else for this.... I'm so tired of my team looking clueless Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk
I have never been a fan of his but this is ridiculous even by Jets standards. No wonder the Jets are a joke
This is amazing news for a Mac hater like myself! Should have been done long long long long ago. New Gm will have a full year now to work on 2020 draft instead of a few months if we had fired Mac in off season. Ding dong the Mac is gone. Please hire a GM who isn’t obsessed with defensive tackles now and who actually cares about protecting the QB
Adam SchefterESPN Senior Writer Jets have fired GM Mike Maccagnan and VP of Player Personnel Brian Heimerdinger, league sources told Jeff Darlington and me. Maccagnan had two years left on his contract. Jets are in position to have strong season thanks to Maccagnan and Heimerdinger.
Probably kept him because he had all the scouting information. Typically when a GM gets canned they keep the entire scouting department for the upcoming draft, so I'd imagine something similar happened here.
