Former New York Jets Star Player Posts Then Quickly Deletes Savage Meme After HC Robert Saleh Was Fired, And It Tells Us Everything We Need To Know
New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh has been fired after five games.
Saleh was 20-36 as the Jets coach five games into his fourth season on the job.
The New York Jets entered the 2024 season with Super Bowl aspirations as quarterback Aaron Rodgers returned from a season-ending injury in 2023.
Unfortunately, the team has not only been playing below standards, but they don’t even look like a team that will qualify for the playoffs.
Not everybody was sad about the firing of Robert Saleh.
Former New York Jets offensive tackle Mekhi Becton took to his X account and posted a viral picture of a man who said years ago that he showed up to his biggest hater’s funeral to ensure that he was indeed dead.
The current Eagles star quickly deleted the post.
During his time as head coach, Robert Saleh cycled through six different starting quarterbacks:
Zach Wilson: 33 games
Mike White: 7 games
Aaron Rodgers: 6 games
Joe Flacco: 5 games
Trevor Siemian: 3 games
Tim Boyle: 2 games
Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is reportedly being named the interim head coach.
Aaron Rodgers Pushing Robert Saleh Now Speaks Volumes
The New York Jets have fired coach Robert Saleh after starting the season 2-3, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Robert Saleh appeared to try to give Aaron Rodgers a hug after the Jets’ second TD on “Thursday Night Football” earlier this year.
However, it appeared that Rodgers was not happy about it, so he pushed him away.
At the time, Robert Saleh stated, “Part of the things we’ve been talking about is to just give the defense a two-score lead,” Saleh said. “And it was a two-score lead.
“I guess he just wanted to see something on defense,” Saleh added, with a laugh. “He just reminded me that, you know, it was a two-score lead.”
Rodgers confirmed the two-score lead was the subject of the exchange while adding, “He’s not a big hugger,” Rodgers told reporters. “I didn’t know he was going for a hug.”
Two weeks later, and Saleh is now fired.
