Jets Fire HC Robert Saleh After Colts' Victory
Saleh's departure comes after a disappointing 1-5 start to the season.
The New York Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh on Monday, one day after the team's 31-0 loss to the Colts. Saleh was hired by the Jets in 2021 and went 9-23 in his two seasons with the team.
Saleh's firing comes as a surprise to many, as he was widely praised for his work with the Jets' defense.
However, the Jets' offense has struggled mightily this season, and the team's record is the worst in the NFL. The Jets are now searching for their third head coach in the past three years.
Saleh's firing is a sign that the Jets are in full-blown rebuild mode.
The team has been one of the worst in the NFL for several years, and Saleh's firing is a sign that the team is looking to start over. The Jets have a lot of young talent on their roster, but they need to find a head coach who can help them reach their potential.
The Jets are likely to interview several candidates for their head coaching vacancy.
Some of the names that have been mentioned as potential candidates include Eric Bieniemy, Mike Kafka, and Dan Quinn. The Jets are expected to make a decision on their next head coach in the coming weeks.
Saleh's firing is a reminder that the NFL is a results-oriented business.
Even if a coach is doing a good job, they can still be fired if the team is not winning. The Jets are hoping that their next head coach can lead them to their first playoff berth since 2010.
