    Falcons completed an interview with Eagles senior personnel director and advisor to the general manager Joe Douglas for their general manager vacancy.
    Douglas is currently in his second stint with the Eagles’ front office. He previously served as the Eagles’ vice president of player personnel from 2016-2019 before taking the Jets’ vacant general manager position. He has been in his current role for one year.

    Falcons requested an interview with Eagles senior personnel director and advisor to the general manager Joe Douglas for their general manager vacancy.
    Douglas spent the 2025 season in his current role, following a six-year stint as the Jets’ general manager. Before that, he served as the Eagles’ vice president of player personnel from 2016-2019. He was hired as the Bears’ director of college scouting in 2015 after spending 2000-2014 as a scout with the Ravens.
  • FA General Manager
    Eagles hired Joe Douglas, formerly of the Jets, to a senior scouting role.
    Douglas was the Eagles’ vice president of player personnel from 2016 to 2019, helping build the franchise’s first Super Bowl champion in 2017. He was hired by the Jets as general manager in June 2019. During his five-plus seasons in New York, the Jets never reached the playoffs. He was fired following the team’s 3-8 start last season. In 2022, Douglas drafted three key players for the Jets in cornerback Sauce Gardner, receiver Garrett Wilson, and running back Breece Hall. Douglas was a member of the Ravens scouting department from 2000 to 2014, where he won a pair of Super Bowls. He also spent one season as the Bears director of college scouting in 2015.
  • The Athletic’s Zack Rosenblatt and Dianna Russini report Jets owner Woody Johnson took increased control over the team this season.
    Rosenblatt and Russini report now-fired general manager Joe Douglas “had already lost some power midway through last season when Johnson took a more active role”. After a Week 4 loss to the Broncos, Johnson “suggested to coaches that they bench Aaron Rodgers”. A week later, he made the decision to fire head coach Robert Saleh “without consulting his general manager”. Johnson also made decisions on player signings and front office firings over the offseason, decreasing Douglas’ power as general manager and pressuring certain decisions, like nixing a trade for Jerry Jeudy and a contract extension for Bryce Huff. Douglas has now been fired as the Jets will hit reset in the offseason. Johnson returned to run the Jets in 2021, after serving as the United States’ Ambassador to the United Kingdom - his brother ran the team when the Jets hired Douglas in 2019.
    Fantasy ripple effects from Jets firing Douglas
    Connor Rogers examines Joe Douglas' biggest missteps as the Jets' general manager, while Matthew Berry and Lawrence Jackson Jr. look at the fantasy impact of his exit with so many changes looming.
  • FA General Manager
    Jets fired general manager Joe Douglas.
    Phil Savage, a former general manager for the Browns and a member of New York’s front office, will serve as the Jets’ interim GM. Douglas is out after five and a half seasons as New York’s general manager. It hardly comes as a shock after the front office’s gamble on 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers turned out disastrously on every front. The Jets are 3-8 in another lost season without any clear path forward outside a total teardown and years-long rebuild. Douglas bet on Rodgers and lost badly. The Jets were 30-64 with Douglas as GM. The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reports the team’s GM search would begin immediately.
  • NYJ Head Coach
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports there is “no indication that New York Jets owner Woody Johnson will make a change in the team’s leadership.
    This means both general manager Joe Douglas and head coach Robert Saleh are safe for at least one more year, barring a surprise change of heart from Johnson. Rapoport added that even offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett will return for the 2024 season. The Jets were dealt an unwinnable hand with Aaron Rodgers’ Achilles injury a few snaps into the season, though a better investment at backup quarterback could have helped mitigate the damage. Either way, this didn’t get to see their Rodgers experiment play out and will get their chance to do so in 2024. If the season isn’t a rebounding success, we expect Johnson to clean house and start fresh.
  • PHI Front Office
    ESPN’s Chris Mortensen reports colleague Todd McShay has turned down a job in the Jets’ front office.
    It’s unclear what position new GM Joe Douglas had in mind for his former college teammate. McShay’s role has been in a bit of a holding pattern at ESPN, but he remains a big part of their college football coverage. Opting for the security of Bristol over the insecurity of an Adam Gase-led football team was probably a wise career move.
  • PHI Front Office
    ESPN’s Rich Cimini reports the Jets will meet with ESPN draft analyst Todd McShay about a front office position this week.
    New GM Joe Douglas will also meet with former Browns GM Phil Savage, who more recently served as the executive director for the Senior Bowl before joining the AAF’s Arizona Hotshots. McShay does not have any front office experience, but he played with Douglas at the University of Richmond in the mid-90s and clearly has a relationship with the new GM.
  • PHI Front Office
    ESPN analyst Todd McShay is under consideration for a front office job with the Jets.
    Although McShay has no experience working in an NFL front office, he previously spent two years with new Jets General Manager Joe Douglas as teammates at the University of Richmond. It’s currently unclear exactly what role McShay is being considered for, but it likely falls under the player evaluation umbrella. The current ESPN analyst would follow the recent footsteps of Mike Mayock as a television personality who jumped ship to the league when the opportunity arose.
  • PHI Front Office
    Jets hired Joe Douglas as general manager.
    Douglas was the favorite to replace Mike Maccagnan all along, but the Texans firing of GM Brian Gaine forced the Jets to speed things up. He beat out Seahawks co-director of player personnel Scott Fitterer, Saints director of pro scouting Terry Fontenot and Chicago’s assistant director of personnel Champ Kelly for the job. In New York, Douglas will be tasked with improving the Jets’ pass rush and finding a playmaking receiver to pair with Sam Darnold. The Jets’ post-draft firing of Maccagnan means Douglas will have to wait for next offseason to bring in his guys.
