GASE AND MARRONE ON THE WAY OUT?

The slow-motion firing of Adam Gase continues. The Jets are “expected to part ways” with Gase after today’s game against the Patriots, according to an NFL Network report.

In other words: He’s getting fired.

The process has dragged on in a fashion befitting Gase’s plodding offenses. There were several reports that Gase was going to be fired if the Jets lost to the Browns last Sunday, but Gase somehow saved his job by winning a game that locked his employer into the No. 2 pick in next year’s draft.

Then this week, there was a sports radio report that acting Jets owner Christopher Johnson had told Gase he was going to be fired.

The NFL Network also reported that Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone is expected to be replaced in the days following today’s finale against the Colts — and they’re expected to make a run at least one possible big-name replacement.

The Jaguars have shown interest in former Ohio State coach Urban Meyer, who has been lining up a staff and telling people he’s close to in the football community that he expects to land in Jacksonville, per sources.

Notable

The Washington Football Team signed Chase Roullier to a new four-year deal, keeping the anchor of its offensive line under contract through 2024.

The Steelers placed cornerback Joe Haden, tight end Eric Ebron and reserve linebacker Cassius Marsh on the reserve/ COVID-19 list.

Unable to practice most of the week due to COVID-19 cases and protocols, the Browns said that offensive line coach Bill Callahan and assistant line coach Scott Peters will both miss today’s game.
