The team’s ex-general manager felt a sense of “relief” after being fired by the Jets, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini, who spoke to an NFL executive close to Douglas. Douglas, who spent five-plus seasons as the Jets GM, was reportedly fishing on the Jersey Shore just hours after losing the job.

Another bombshell report from The Athletic about the New York Jets dropped on Saturday morning. The headliner from the story was Aaron Rodgers’ desire to continue playing for a different team and the possibility he may be released in-season. Some interesting notes about the firing of Joe Douglas were also included.
