Joe Douglas‘ first splashy move as the head honcho in New York City was luring former Panthers center Ryan Kalil out of retirement to start for the Jets.
On Friday afternoon, rumors circulated that Douglas may be looking to lure another interior offensive lineman out of retirement.
Manish Mehta of the New York Daily News reported that sources indicated the Jets reached out to former Chicago Bears guard Kyle Long in order to gauge his interest in coming out of retirement.
Later, Rick Tarsitano of Chicago-based WGN-TV reported that Long told him there was zero truth to the Jets rumors.
