The 1990 New York Jets season was the 31st season for the team and the 21st in the National Football League. It began with the team, under new head coach Bruce Coslet, trying to improve from winning only four games in 1989 under Joe Walton. The Jets finished the season at 6–10.

Offseason

The Jets modified their uniforms for the 1990 season, adding a thin black outline to the numerals, striping and helmet decals and changing the facemask color from white to black. The team also added a set of green pants, to be worn with its white jerseys. The green pants had a single white stripe with thin black borders from hip to knee on each side. The new uniforms debuted in the regular-season opener on September 9 at Cincinnati; the team wore its previous uniforms, without the black trim, in preseason games.

Coaching change

On December 26, 1989, the New York Jets fired head coach Joe Walton after seven seasons following a 4–12 record to end the 1989 NFL season. His entire coaching staff was also dismissed. On February 6, 1990, the team hired Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Bruce Coslet as their new head coach. Among Coslet’s hires was Minnesota Vikings defensive backs coach Pete Carroll, who became his defensive coordinator.
