History of The New York Jets

1962 Jets

January 1, Coaching Intrigue
Wismer named Clyde "Bulldog" Turner to succeed Baugh as the Titans' head coach, then when Baugh protested, agreed to pay off his former coach's contract and keep Turner.

September 9, Signal Caller Swap
Lee Grosscup, the Giants' backup quarterback in 1960-61, was signed just before the season opener, got the starting nod and directed a 27-17 victory over Oakland.

November 8, Red Ink Rising
Wismer was unable to meet his payroll and the AFL assumed the costs of running the Titans until the end of the season.
