Rick Spielman helped the New York Jets find their new coach and general manager. Now, he'll be part of their revamped front office. The former Minnesota Vikings and Miami Dolphins general manager announced on his CBS Sports podcast Thursday that he'll serve as the team's senior football adviser. Spielman and former Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum assisted New York owner Woody Johnson in the franchise's two searches during the past few months as part of The 33rd Team, a football media, analytics and consulting group that helped identify and vet GM and coach candidates and coordinate interviews. The Jets recently hired Aaron Glenn as their coach and Darren Mougey as their GM.
