Jets Fire GM Maccagnan and VP Heimerdinger

Just three short weeks after the 2019 NFL Draft, the New York Jets have fired GM Mike Maccagnan and VP of Player Personnel Brian Heimerdinger. The announcement from CEO Christopher Johnson comes just 4 days after head coach Adam Gase denied a possible rift between him and Maccagnan, saying it “pisses him off” when media creates rumors with no proof. Today we found out those rumors must have been somewhat true, because after just four seasons, and 5 drafts, they are parting ways. Maccagnan failed to build a playoff caliber roster during his time in New York, but many believed he was starting to turn the team around.
