Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff has had quite the year since the ‘Summer of Chevy’ where he appeared to have fixed the problems facing this club by acquiring depth on defence ,which we now know didn’t solve the team’s problems. Add to that the Kyle Beach situation which he was ultimately not disciplined for, having former Jets head coach Paul Maurice resign midseason and then an end of season player media availability which has created plenty of speculation.
About the only thing not being speculated is that he has signed himself a three-year contract extension and there was a report this morning that he is planning on a complete overhaul of the coaching staff.
He reflected on the 2021-22 season today in his final media availability to conclude the season.
