The Jets are getting a makeover after another losing season and their 14th straight without a playoff appearance.
Earlier this month, the organization sent all non-contractual employees — 170 out of 250 staffers — buyouts in an effort to change the culture, according to Sports Business Journal.
Employees have until Monday, the end of the Jets’ and the NFL’s fiscal year, to either accept or forgo the offer.
For most senior employees, the buyout offer includes more than 18 months of full salary and health insurance if they decide to leave.
Employees with 20 or more years with the franchise — which includes all vice presidents and above by title — were offered 80 weeks of pay and health insurance, and their 2024 bonus.
Staffers with 10-20 years’ experience were offered three weeks of pay for every year of service, plus their health insurance premium for that period, and their 2024 bonus.
Employees with fewer than 10 years’ experience received two weeks of pay for every year of service, plus a sum equivalent to their 2024 bonus.
The buyouts were not for financial reasons and there will not be layoffs, Johnson confirmed to The Post’s Brian Costello.
Instead, management hopes employees reflect on their long-term career goals and personal interests, and whether they align within the franchise’s.
Those employees were sent offers after the Jets recently completed “comprehensive study” of the organization and growth priorities, a spokesperson said.
“The exercise has identified opportunities to operate, align, and innovate more effectively,” the spokesperson said. “As we position ourselves for this future growth, we felt it was essential to provide our employees with the opportunity to make an informed, autonomous decision about their careers given the direction of the company.”
The Jets’ 14-year playoff drought is the NFL’s longest.
They’ve undergone a roster makeover this offseason, adding former Steelers quarterback Justin Fields to replace Aaron Rodgers.
The Jets are hoping 26-year-old Fields is the solution to their quarterback issues after two losing seasons with Rodgers, who missed the 2023 season after tearing his Achilles four plays into his first season.
The Jets introduced new general manager, Darren Mougey and new head coach, Aaron Glenn in Florham Park in January.
