On Tuesday morning, Jets head coach Adam Gase told reporters that he expects the club to hire its new GM by the end of next week (Twitter link via ESPN.com’s Rich Cimini). However, Cimini hears that the decision is “very likely to happen sooner.” 
“We’ll just keep huddling up and figuring out where we’re at with that, until Christopher [Johnson] is ready to make a decision,” Gase said.
The Jets were originally set to interview at least six candidates for the position, but wound up interviewing only four: Scott Fitterer (Seahawks co-director of player personnel), Champ Kelly (Bears assistant director of player personnel), Saints director of pro scouting Terry Fontenot, and Joe Douglas (Eagles vice president of player personnel). Gase stressed that the club will not interview any more candidates, so the Jets’ next GM will come from that quartet.
Douglas is the reported favorite, but there’s no such thing as a sure thing when it comes to the Jets.
That’s only 3.
Pretty clearly 4 names there…
They edited it after my comment and added Terry Fontenot to the list of interviewed.
Bring back Rich Kotex
Watching Gase interview these four would be like watching that scene in “The Deerhunter” where the revolver gets passed back and forth until there is a winner (?) by default.
Well compared to Bowles watching Gase is like going to a circus.
