Character games: The New York Jets are Joe Douglas’ team

Joe Douglas did his duty Tuesday afternoon. Meeting with the media, courtesy of Zoom, the New York Jets general manager laid down a familiar vision for his football program.

Character. Culture. Character and more character. Did I happen to mention character?

With the No. 2 overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft, a boatload of draft picks at his disposal, plenty of cap space and an exciting vacancy at the head-coaching position, the organization’s football program is now Douglas’s to lead.

No more mention of Adam Gase. No more tank talk.
