Here are some thoughts and observations after digesting the news of the Jets firing general manager Mike Maccagnan and looking ahead to what’s next:
1. One area of fallout from Wednesday’s news that the Jets may have not anticipated was the reporting that emerged about coach Adam Gase not being fully onboard with the signing of running back Le’Veon Bell to a four-year, $52.5 million deal in March.
Sources told me that Gase likes Bell the player, but felt they did not have to pay that much to get him. There were other reports that Gase did not want Bell at all.
