The team has tapped Denver Broncos assistant general manager Darren Mougey as their next GM. It was reported a few days prior to the announcement, but it has happened officially. Like new head coach Aaron Glenn, Mougey will attempt to find better days for Gang Green moving forward.

Mougey, 39, is the third-youngest GM in the NFL and joins the Jets after serving as the Broncos assistant GM since 2022. He has been with the Broncos since 2012, rising from scouting intern to assistant GM.

Darren Mougey replaces Joe Douglas, who was fired as GM late in the 2024 season after failing to make the playoffs over a six-year tenure.
