NFL laments recent hires weren't minorities; looking to adjust 'Rooney Rule' [View all]

A.P. / 1-18-13

Eight teams hired new coaches and seven more filled general manager positions with the New York Jets completing their search by hiring John Idzik. None of those jobs went to a minority.

Now the league is considering revisions to the "Rooney Rule," which mandates that teams must interview at least one minority candidate for front-office and head coaching jobs.
