NFL news, injury updates: Jets fire GM Joe Douglas, Cowboys still haven’t won at home

The New York Jets are cleaning house, with GM Joe Douglas getting the boot exactly six weeks after the team fired head coach Robert Saleh. Since then, the Jets have won just one of their last six games since Jeff Ulbrich took over head coaching duties.

They and the struggling New York Giants are the only teams without a home win this season. But if you pull the camera back a bit, things look even worse for the Cowboys. The Giants’ last home win was on Jan. 7, 2024, but the Cowboys haven’t won a home game since Dec. 30, 2023.

That means the Cowboys are the only team in all four major North American pro sports leagues without a home win in the year 2024. Even the Philadelphia 76ers and Washington Wizards, who are tied for the NBA’s worst record at 2-11, each have a home win.
