Eric DeCosta Turns Down New York Jets Interview Request

Although it isn't a surprise, here it is:

Both Ravens ass't GM Eric DeCosta and Vikings ass't GM George Paton have told teams they are staying put. So 2 off the market, for now.

Both DeCosta and Paton have rejected interview requests in the past. DeCosta in particular was a long shot, but there was hope that the New York Jets could convince him to at least interview, as he is always the number one choice in a GM search. The Chicago Bears also put in an interview request.

On to the next candidate.
