The New York Jets’ attempt to salvage another season has resulted in another major shakeup.

General manager Joe Douglas was reportedly fired on Tuesday more than halfway through his sixth season with the organization. ESPN first reported the decision.

The news followed another crushing loss for the Jets, this time a one-point loss to the Indianapolis Colts at home on Sunday. It added to the team’s growing frustration that followed a brutal 31-6 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Tuesday’s shake up was the latest attempt by owner Woody Johnson to reboot what he and others believed was a Super Bowl contending team. Head coach Robert Saleh was fired last month just five games into the season, but the Jets went 1-5 after defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich stepped up as interim head coach. 

Offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, once considered a main draw in acquiring Aaron Rodgers, was also then stripped of play calling duties, handing the reins over to passing game coordinator Todd Downing. 

This is a developing story. Check back for more updates.
