The New York Jets have begun their search for a new head coach and general manager, aiming to interview candidates for the GM position before the regular season ends. Team owner Woody Johnson is leading the search, which will run parallel for both positions, a first since 2015. The Jets are not using a traditional search firm but may employ advisors with sports executive backgrounds. Interviews for candidates currently employed by other teams will start after the regular season. The Jets are considering experienced candidates to minimize risk and may pay well to attract top talent. The future of Aaron Rodgers with the team remains uncertain, and Johnson's potential return to the UK could impact the team's operations.

The Calgary Flames have fired coach Darryl Sutter after failing to reach the playoffs this season. Sutter had two years remaining on his contract, valued at around $4 million annually, and the Flames still owe him that money.

Sutter's demanding, tough-love approach worked with some players, but not with others, and a trio of players entering the final years of their contracts were all non-committal about their futures during exit meetings. The Flames now have two openings, one for a GM and one for a coach.
