REPORT: Former Jets Head Coach Robert Saleh Set To Receive Coaching Offer From Interesting NFC Team
Former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh is set to receive a lucrative coaching offer from a familiar team.
In a surprise move, Robert Saleh was fired by the Jets following a 2-3 start. Jeff Ulbrich was named the interim head coach, but the change did nothing to help a Jets team that went 3-9 after Saleh’s firing.
According to a report from NFL insider Josina Anderson, Saleh will interview with the Jacksonville Jaguars for their head coaching vacancy on Thursday. Additionally, Anderson reports that the San Francisco 49ers “are expected to” offer Saleh their defensive coordinator position.
The 45-year-old Robert Saleh was the 49ers’ defensive coordinator from 2017 to 2020 under Kyle Shanahan, helping them to a Super Bowl 54 appearance. Saleh was also the Jags’ linebackers coach from 2014 to 2016.
