Read full article: Jets fire coach Adam Gase after 2 seasons of failed offenseNew York Jets head coach Adam Gase watches from the sideline in the second half of an NFL football game against the New England Patriots, Sunday, Jan. 3, 2021, in Foxborough, Mass. The Jets fired Gase on Sunday night, ending a disappointing tenure after just two loss-filled seasons. Douglas, hired six months after Gase in June 2019, will now have the chance to help hire the next coach. If they keep Darnold, will the new coach be able to tap into his potential in a way Gase simply could not? Gase wasn’t a popular pick among fans after the Jets fired Todd Bowles following the 2018 season.

Read full article: Jets' Johnson: Gase's job safe, will remain coach in 2020New York Jets chairman and CEO Christopher Johnson says Adam Gase's job is safe and he will remain the coach next season despite the team's struggles this year. Johnson held a brief meeting with reporters Wednesday and says Gase has his trust as well as the trust of general manager Joe Douglas moving forward. Johnson calls Gase a good man, good coach, and says he likes how Gase has maintained a positive dynamic in the facility despite the Jets facing lots of adversity and sitting at 2-7. Johnson says the losing has been exceedingly frustrating, but adds that he believes Gase and Douglas will be able to "lead the Jets to a great future." Gase replaced the fired Todd Bowles last January, and Douglas was hired to replace Mike Maccagnan in June.
