Whatever McCarthy’s next career move is, he’s not expected to head toward the New York Jets. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Chicago Bears and New Orleans Saints are expected to pursue McCarthy. The Jets were not listed as one of the teams interested in McCarthy at the early stages of of his availability:

During the 2019 coaching cycle, the Jets interviewed McCarthy for the head coaching position. Ultimately they hired Adam Gase instead and he ended up being one of the worst coaches in franchise history. McCarthy is an experienced NFL head coach. He has a 174-112-2 record in his 18 seasons running a program.

The Jets have a head coach opening and Mike McCarthy is available. Aaron Rodgers heaped praise onto his former coach on ESPN.

The relationship between New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers and his former head coach Mike McCarthy was once thought to be irreparable. Now, those old thoughts appear to be nothing more than the perspective of outside noise and not the reality of what either side dealt with.

Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy are both looking for a new home, but don't expect a reunion. In fact, the New York Jets' QB might just call it quits.

Only Woody Johnson is desperate enough to hire Mike McCarthy to salvage the failed Aaron Rodgers era in New York.

The New Orleans Saints appear to be Mike McCarthy's only potential head coaching landing spot at this point after the Chicago Bears agreed to terms

The Dallas Cowboys are expected to interview ex-head coach of the New York Jets Robert Saleh after deciding to part ways with Mike McCarthy, according to a report.

Mike McCarthy and the Cowboys parted ways on Monday, and he is now searching for a new job. Perhaps he would fit in well in New York with Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams. However, who even knows if those two will still be with the Jets next year.
