Breaking: Jets Set to Say Goodbye to 5-Time Pro Bowler in Stunning $13 Million Roster Move
Breaking: Jets Set to Say Goodbye to 5-Time Pro Bowler in Stunning $13 Million Roster Move
At the end of another disappointing season, there are sure to be plenty of roster casualties for the New York Jets.
A 5-12 team typically experiences lots of turnover, and the Jets are already guaranteed to have a new head coach and general manager, and possibly a new quarterback as well. In addition, they could be saying goodbye to their most decorated defensive player.
Linerbacker C.J. Mosley, one of the team’s captains and a former five-time Pro Bowler, played in just four games this season. The Jets still have Mosley under contract for one more year, but one insider believes New York will rip off the Band-Aid and part ways with Mosley at the earliest opportunity.
ESPN’s Rich Cimini predicted Friday that Mosley would be cut on Jun. 1 of this year, leaving the 10-year veteran’s NFL future in jeopardy.
“This one isn’t hard to figure out: He will be 33 next season, his cap charge is $12.8 million and his health is a question mark because of his neck,” Cimini wrote.
“His contract is a problem. There’s a $16.4 million dead charge if they cut him, which means they probably will designate him a June 1 cut to spread it over two years. Each team is allowed two June 1 designations.”
Mosley came to the Jets in 2019, and he made the fifth and final Pro Bowl of his career in 2022. He was sensational from 2014 to 2018 as a member of the Baltimore Ravens. But all great careers meet their twilight.
Because the Jets are heading toward another rebuild, it doesn’t make sense to keep Mosley clogging up a 53-man roster spot. But perhaps the former superstar has one last late-career surge in him if he can secure a change of scenery.

New Orleans Saints Crush Rumors of Drew Brees Returning as Head Coach, Confirm Ongoing Negotiations with Another Candidate for Coaching Role”
New Orleans Saints Crush Rumors of Drew Brees Returning as Head Coach, Confirm Ongoing Negotiations with Another Candidate for Coaching Role”
In a sweeping response to mounting speculation, the New Orleans Saints have officially rejected rumors surrounding a potential return of Drew Brees—not as a player, but as the team’s next head coach. The franchise’s management, in a statement issued late Thursday, made it clear that while Brees’ legacy as a player is undeniable, they are currently in active negotiations with a different individual for the top coaching position.
The Saints have been in search of a new head coach ever since the sudden departure of longtime leader Sean Payton, who left the team in early 2022 to take over the Denver Broncos. Payton’s departure has left a void that the organization has been working diligently to fill. The franchise’s most recent coach, Dennis Allen, has come under scrutiny following a series of disappointing seasons, fueling speculation that a change might be imminent. Among the names that had been circulating in recent weeks was Brees, a former Saints icon who retired after leading the team to a Super Bowl victory in 2010.
Brees’ Return: A Fantasy or a Reality?
Brees has been one of the most celebrated figures in New Orleans sports history, and his connection with the Saints’ fanbase runs deep. Given his iconic status and years of experience with the team, it was only natural for the rumor mill to buzz with the possibility of his return—not as a player, but as the man to lead the team from the sidelines.
However, in a rare public statement, Saints General Manager Mickey Loomis put an end to these swirling speculations. “Drew Brees has been an incredible player and a tremendous asset to this organization,” Loomis said. “His contributions to the New Orleans Saints and the city of New Orleans are immeasurable. But we are in discussions with another candidate for the head coaching position, and Drew is not currently a part of those talks.”
Loomis further emphasized that the team is focused on finding a leader who can help the Saints return to playoff contention, and that the search for the next head coach is ongoing. “We are fully committed to finding the right person to lead our team into the future. We have a strong roster and a dedicated fanbase, and we need someone who can maximize our potential,” he added.
The Current Coaching Search
The Saints have reportedly been casting a wide net in their search for a new head coach. Names like former NFL head coaches and current coordinators have been floated as potential candidates. While the team has remained tight-lipped about specific individuals, sources close to the organization suggest that they are looking for a coach with a proven track record of success, a deep understanding of offensive schemes, and the ability to work well with quarterback Derek Carr, whom the team signed in the offseason.
One name that has reportedly gained traction within the organization is former NFL head coach Jim Harbaugh, who is currently leading the University of Michigan football program. Harbaugh’s ability to turn around struggling teams is well-documented, and his aggressive coaching style may be the type of leadership the Saints need to revitalize their franchise.
Additionally, some reports have suggested that the Saints are also eyeing high-profile coordinators, including those from teams with strong offensive units. As the team looks to elevate its offense—especially following a disappointing 2023 season—the search for a coach who can maximize the talents of the squad remains paramount.
Drew Brees’ Future
As for Drew Brees, his future in the NFL is still a point of intrigue. Since retiring, Brees has been involved in various business ventures, media roles, and charitable activities, but there have been whispers about a potential return to the league in a coaching capacity. However, his rejection as a head coaching candidate for the Saints does not necessarily close the door on any future involvement with the franchise. Some have speculated that Brees could still play a role in mentoring the team’s quarterbacks or in an advisory capacity, though no formal discussions about such a position have been confirmed.
Brees himself has remained tight-lipped about his future with the Saints, stating only that he is focused on enjoying his post-retirement life, including spending time with his family and continuing his work in the media. He has not ruled out the possibility of coaching at some point, but for now, it appears that the Saints are looking elsewhere for their next leader.
The Road Ahead for the Saints
The New Orleans Saints find themselves at a crossroads. With a roster that includes star players like quarterback Derek Carr, running back Alvin Kamara, and defensive standouts such as Demario Davis, the team is not far from contention. However, without the right leadership, they risk wasting the talent on their roster.
As the franchise moves forward with its coaching search, the question remains: Who will be the one to take the reins and bring the Saints back to prominence? While Drew Brees’ name may have been linked to the position, the focus is now on finding a coach who can take the franchise to the next level—regardless of who they are or where they come from.
For now, the Saints and their fans must wait for the organization to reveal who will be the next head coach to lead them into a new era.

Antonio Pierce’s Message to the Raiders After Being Fired: “I am the best coach the Raiders could ever have, but
Antonio Pierce’s Message to the Raiders After Being Fired: “I am the best coach the Raiders could ever have, but……
Antonio Pierce’s Message to the Raiders After Being Fired:
“I am the best coach the Raiders could ever have, but they blamed me. No matter how they try, the truth remains that I gave everything to this team. From the moment I took over, I poured my heart, soul, and energy into leading this franchise. I took on the challenge with unwavering dedication, knowing the task ahead would be tough. I pushed the players to be their best, believed in their potential, and worked tirelessly to create a winning culture.
Despite the obstacles we faced, I saw growth in this team. We showed resilience, determination, and a never-give-up attitude. But, unfortunately, the results weren’t always reflected in the win column. I understand the business side of football, and I know that winning is the ultimate measure of success. But I also know that leadership is about more than just wins and losses. It’s about instilling discipline, belief, and a sense of pride in the organization.
The blame falls on me, but it’s important to remember that building a championship team is a long process, and there are many factors that contribute to success or failure. I always took responsibility for my decisions and actions, and I continue to stand by what I did for the team.
I am proud of the work I did here, proud of the players who gave their all, and proud of the legacy I leave behind. No matter what, the truth is that I worked hard, I cared deeply, and I always did my best for the Raiders. I hope the team moves forward with the same passion and commitment that I gave every single day. I’ll always carry this experience with me, and I wish the Raiders the best in the future.”

Jets Next GM Hire Potentially Leaked by Packers
Jets Next GM Hire Potentially Leaked by Packers
Green Bay Packers HC Matt LaFleur and Packers GM Brian Gutekunst.
We might have accidentally discovered who the next New York Jets general manager will be.
Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst was recently asked about his vice president of player personnel Jon-Eric Sullivan – who has taken multiple GM interviews this offseason.
“He’ll be missed,” Gutekunst responded.
Eric Edholm of the NFL Media Group reacted to that quote by saying, “Sounds like Gutey knows JES is getting a GM job.”
Sullivan has only interviewed for two general manager jobs this offseason – the Tennessee Titans and the Jets. On Friday, January 17 the Titans announced that they have signed former Kansas City Chiefs assistant general manager Mike Borgonzi to a five-year deal to become the next GM.
That only leaves one other team that has spoken with Jon-Eric Sullivan.
It’s important to note that the Las Vegas Raiders have requested an interview with Sullivan, per NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport. However, he has yet to take part in that interview at the time of publication.
It’s very feasible that Sullivan interviewed with the Jets and it went so great that he had a feeling he was getting the NYJ job and shared that information with Gutekunst. Who then felt so confident that Sullivan was leaving he put out that “he’ll be missed” comment.
However, this whole thing feels a bit presumptuous.
The Jets haven’t even started their second round of interviews for their next GM yet at the time of this article. Whoever those individuals are will be the finalists for the position.
“Gutekunst also said Sullivan would be missed, but he probably thought Sullivan might get the Titans job since TN team president was in GB for 13 [years]. Sullivan [is] certainly a possibility for [the] Jets but he just interviewed & has one with the Raiders, too. Wouldn’t jump to conclusions,” Jets analyst Scott Mason said on social media.
What Impact Would a Sullivan Hire Have on Aaron Rodgers’ Future With The Jets?
Sullivan is certainly a candidate at the very least for the Jets if not one of the leading figures.
He has spent the last 21 years with the Packers. This means 18 of those years Sullivan crossed over with Aaron Rodgers while they were both in Green Bay.
I would imagine Sullivan having prior experience with Rodgers would only help his chances of potentially returning in 2025.
People who don’t know Rodgers personally and judge from the outside could have a lot of different feelings and could make assumptions than people who have gotten to know him.
I can speak for myself that I thought I knew what Rodgers was all about before he got traded to the Jets. Then I got to know him intimately through tons of interviews, press conferences, books, and deep-dive articles from insiders and Jets-beat reporters alike.
I had a much different perspective and appreciation for getting to know him on a deeper level.
Jets owner Woody Johnson has let it be known that the future of Rodgers on the Jets will be decided by the next head coach and general manager of the team.
Rodgers still hasn’t decided if he is going to retire this offseason. However a looming meeting between Rodgers and the next HC/GM could push him in one direction or the other based on whether they want him back in the fold.

HEARTFELT: America/ California/Los Angeles Wildfires; A great Message to the world, by Gayle Benson
HEARTFELT: America/ California/Los Angeles Wildfires; A great Message to the world, by Gayle Benson
Brothers and sisters, as we reflect on the recent devastation caused by wildfires in California, particularly in Los Angeles, we are reminded of both the fragility of our world and the resilience of the human spirit. These fires, fierce and uncontrollable, have ravaged homes, communities, and landscapes, leaving devastation in their wake. But in the face of such overwhelming destruction, there lies a profound message that we must heed.
First, we must acknowledge the powerful connection we share with the environment. The wildfires are not simply a force of nature; they are a wake-up call to all of humanity. Our disregard for the delicate balance of nature and the overexploitation of natural resources have contributed to the increased frequency and severity of these fires. The impact of climate change is undeniable, and it is our collective responsibility to protect and nurture the Earth that sustains us.
Second, these fires highlight the importance of unity and compassion in times of crisis. Despite the chaos and devastation, we have witnessed countless acts of bravery, kindness, and solidarity. Firefighters, first responders, and ordinary citizens have come together to fight the flames and offer support to those affected. In these moments, we are reminded that we are all interconnected, and in the face of adversity, we must come together to rebuild and restore.
Lastly, let this tragedy remind us of the impermanence of life. Homes can be destroyed, possessions can be lost, but the strength of our community and the will to rebuild are eternal. The wildfires in California are not just a disaster; they are a powerful message that encourages us to reevaluate our values, to live with gratitude, and to always be mindful of the world around us.
May we all learn from these events and work together to protect our planet, our communities, and one another.
