The Pittsburgh Steelers, not known for their commitment to analytics, have lost one-half of their analytics front office department. According to a recently updated listing of staff on the team’s website, Jay Whitmire, labeled as a team Football Analyst, is no longer part of the organization.
But Whitmire hasn’t left the NFL. According to his LinkedIn profile, he is now a member of the New York Jets as a member of their analytics department.
According to his profile, he began the job in July. The Jets’ team website has yet to list his name and official title though team sites are notoriously slow for updating this kind of information.
