Robert Saleh Interviewed for Jaguars Head Coaching Position

Robert Saleh, the former head coach of the New York Jets, is poised for a swift return to coaching after his firing in October 2024. He is set to interview for the head coaching position with the Jacksonville Jaguars next week, a team he previously coached as a linebackers coach from 2014 to 2016. Additionally, Saleh is reportedly receiving an offer to return to the San Francisco 49ers as their defensive coordinator, a role he successfully held from 2017 to 2020. His tenure with the Jets ended with a disappointing 20-36 record, and he was dismissed after a 2-3 start to the season. Following his departure, the Jets' defense faltered significantly, emphasizing Saleh's impact on the team. If not hired by the Jaguars, he remains a strong candidate for coordinator positions across the league.
