Jets Interview Ron Rivera for Head Coach and Louis Riddick for GM Roles

The New York Jets accelerate their search for a new leadership team after a disappointing 4-12 season and midseason firings of key personnel.

Ron Rivera, former head coach of the Panthers and Commanders, is the first known candidate to interview for the Jets' head coaching position.
ESPN analyst and former NFL executive Louis Riddick is the fourth candidate to interview for the Jets' general manager vacancy.
The Jets' leadership search follows the midseason firings of head coach Robert Saleh in October and GM Joe Douglas in November after years of underperformance.
Team owner Woody Johnson is leading the hiring process with assistance from The 33rd Team, a consulting group founded by former Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum.
The new leadership will face critical decisions, including the future of veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers and rebuilding a roster that has not made the playoffs since 2010.
