NEW YORK (AP) — Mike Maccagnan predicted the Jets — with lots of needs and plenty of money — would be very active when free agency kicked off.
NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Jets released offensive lineman Spencer Long on Tuesday, saving the team almost $6.5 million on next season's salary cap.
Long was due a $3 million roster bonus that would have become guaranteed Wednesday if he remained with the team. The Jets opted instead to cut him after he struggled with injuries and consistency at center before moving to left guard.
NEW YORK (AP) — The sales pitch from the Jets to prospective head coaching candidates begins with Sam Darnold.
Everything else is a distant second.
Sure, being in the New York/New Jersey area is an obvious attraction, and Jets chairman and CEO Christopher Johnson spun his own take on a classic line by saying earlier this week that if you succeed in the Big Apple, "you're a freaking legend."
NEW YORK (AP) — It wasn't long after Todd Bowles was fired as the Jets' head coach that frustrated fans started asking the inevitable question:
What about Mike Maccagnan?
The general manager was hired a day before Bowles in 2015, the two linked together — but separately in the team's reporting structure — for the next four seasons that featured lots of losing and disappointment.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Christopher Johnson's first major decision running the New York Jets didn't come easily for him.
The next one will shape the future of the franchise.
"Absolutely," the team's acting chairman and CEO said Monday. "And it's not being taken lightly."
Johnson knew it was time to part ways with coach Todd Bowles, who went 24-40 in four disappointing seasons that included no playoff appearances.
NEW YORK (AP) — Todd Bowles' tenure with the New York Jets began four years ago with plenty of promise. It ended with too many losses and no playoff appearances.
The team announced the long-expected decision that it moved on from Bowles on Sunday night, a few hours after the Jets wrapped up their season with a 38-3 loss at New England.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Quincy Enunwa is staying put with Sam Darnold and the New York Jets.
The wide receiver signed a multiyear contract extension Friday, opting for the deal with his only NFL team rather than free agency in the offseason.
"I'm excited, especially for the future," Enunwa said with a big smile.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Mike Maccagnan is living in the present — with an eye on the New York Jets' future.
The fourth-year general manager is far from pleased or satisfied with the team's third straight 3-5 start. He also insists there's plenty of time left before this season can be accurately judged.
NEW YORK (AP) — Mike Maccagnan's first draft class with the New York Jets took two big hits on cutdown day.
Linebacker Lorenzo Mauldin and defensive tackle Deon Simon were both waived Saturday as the Jets reduced their roster to the NFL's 53-man limit.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Darrelle Revis officially shut down his dominant playing career by signing one final contract.
The seven-time Pro Bowl cornerback who routinely frustrated opposing receivers with his blanket-like coverage officially retired Tuesday as a member of the New York Jets — the team with which Revis spent eight of his 11 NFL seasons.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The New York Jets kicked off the NFL draft by getting their quarterback of the future — who might actually be the face of the franchise right now.
After taking Southern California quarterback Sam Darnold at No. 3 overall on Thursday night and Fort Hays State defensive lineman Nathan Shepherd in the third round Friday night, general manager Mike Maccagnan went to work on the draft's final day to fill some sizable roster holes.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The New York Jets head into the final day of the NFL draft with four more picks — at least for now.
They have made only two selections through the first two days after drafting USC quarterback Sam Darnold at No. 3 overall on Thursday night and Fort Hays State defensive lineman Nathan Shepherd in the third round Friday night.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The New York Jets took care of their biggest need in the first round, drafting USC quarterback Sam Darnold with the No. 3 overall pick.
They head into Day 2 with just one selection — a third-rounder — on Friday after trading their two second-rounders to Indianapolis last month as part of a deal to move up three spots from No. 6.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The Jets called an aggressive audible by trading up to the No. 3 pick last month to assure themselves of getting one of the top quarterbacks available in the NFL draft.
Now comes the toughest play call of all.
Sam Darnold? Baker Mayfield? Josh Rosen? Josh Allen?
"You just want to get it right," general manager Mike Maccagnan said.
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Ndamukong Suh won't become a New York Jet.
Acting owner Christopher Johnson said Sunday the team has rescinded its offer to the free agent defensive tackle.
Johnson was vague on reasons for the move, admitting though that it "didn't seem to be in keeping with our long-term plan."
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Christopher Johnson knew early in the season that his New York Jets were heading in the right direction.
As the acting owner/CEO, he wanted to see clear progress — with wins and losses not necessarily being an overriding factor in whether he'd stick with coach Todd Bowles and general manager Mike Maccagnan moving forward.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Good thing there are names on the back of their jerseys.
These New York Jets are awfully tough to recognize after a massive offseason roster overhaul.
Gone are familiar faces such as Darrelle Revis, Sheldon Richardson, Nick Mangold, David Harris, Brandon Marshall and Eric Decker as general manager Mike Maccagnan cleared out high-priced salaries of big-name players.
NEW YORK (AP) — Now, it's official: Eric Decker's days with the New York Jets are done.
The team released the veteran wide receiver Monday, six days after saying it would do so if it couldn't work out a trade.
While it appeared Decker drew some interest from teams in the trade market, the 30-year-old receiver is now a free agent.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — David Harris was just the latest veteran player shown the door in what has been an offseason purge by the New York Jets.
Eric Decker will be the next to leave. And, there could be more to come.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — The New York Jets are planning to trade or cut wide receiver Eric Decker, the latest move in what has been an offseason purge of veterans with big contracts.
General manager Mike Maccagnan says Tuesday night that if the Jets can't deal Decker, they will move forward without him.
Decker's departure will save the Jets $7.25 million on the salary cap. The news came a few hours after New York cut linebacker David Harris after 10 seasons.
NEW YORK (AP) — Marcus Gilchrist's future with the New York Jets was uncertain when they drafted Jamal Adams in the first round last week.
After they took another safety — Marcus Maye — in the second round, Gilchrist's fate was sealed.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Mike Maccagnan and the New York Jets went wheeling and dealing at the NFL draft, and filled a handful of needs with their nine picks.
The Jets capped Saturday by making three trades, even gaining a pick next year in the process, giving them five deals during the three-day draft.
"You roll the dice a little bit when you move back," Maccagnan said. "But there were situations that we felt, hey, there might still be some players that we can get or acquire."
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Jamal Adams unexpectedly slid a few spots down the draft board — and the New York Jets couldn't believe their fortunes.
So, with the LSU safety still available, there was little doubt as to whom the Jets would take with the No. 6 overall pick.
"In a lot of our projections," general manager Mike Maccagnan said Thursday night, "we really never had him getting to us."
NEW YORK (AP) — It appears Josh McCown will be the lone veteran in the New York Jets' quarterbacks room this summer.
The Jets might add yet another youngster, but whether McCown is the starter when the season begins remains to be seen.
