Jets hiring Darren Mougey as general manager: Ex-Broncos executive joins Aaron Glenn in New York
Just days after finding their new head coach, the New York Jets have found their new general manager. According to a CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones the Jets will hire Denver Broncos assistant general manager Darren Mougey to fill the role.
Mougey replaces the departed Joe Douglas, who was fired during the 2024 season along with former head coach Robert Saleh and former offensive Nathaniel Hackett. The Jets hired former Detroit Lions defensive coordinator (and New York Jets defensive back) Aaron Glenn as their head coach earlier this week, and Glenn and Mougey will now work together to lead the next era of Jets football.
Mougey was a former wide receiver at San Diego State, where he was a college teammate of Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell. He went undrafted in 2009 and spent two years on the Falcons and Cardinals’ practice squads before joining the Broncos as a scouting intern in 2012.
Mougey slowly moved his way up in Denver’s personnel department, holding the titles of Personnel and Scouting Assistant, College and Pro Personnel Scout, Area Scout, Assistant Director of College Scouting, Director of Player Personnel and finally Assistant General Manager, which is the title he held for the last four years.
According to NFL Media, Mougey has been a “sounding board” for Broncos coach Sean Payton since his arrival in Denver, which gives him a connection to Glenn. Prior to arriving in Detroit, Glenn served as the defensive backs coach under Payton with the New Orleans Saints.
