Jets fire coach Robert Saleh after 2-3 start, sources say.
The New York Jets have fired coach Robert Saleh after starting the season 2-3, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich will be the interim head coach, a source told ESPN.
Saleh, who was hired by the Jets in 2021, had a 20-36 record as the team's head coach.
Saleh's firing marks the first time in owner Woody Johnson's 25-year tenure that he has fired a coach in the middle of the season. After last season, a 7-10 finish, Johnson acknowledged that he was livid with the outcome and raised the stakes for Saleh by demanding significant improvement.
Saleh becomes the third NFL coach to be fired after losing a game in London, according to ESPN Research. The Raiders fired coach Dennis Allen in 2014 the day after they lost 38-14 to the Miami Dolphins at Wembley Stadium, while the Dolphins fired coach Joe Philbin in 2015 the day after they lost 27-14 to the Jets at Wembley. Saleh's firing comes two days after the Jets lost 23-17 to the Minnesota Vikings at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Jets entered the 2024 season with high expectations, with quarterback Aaron Rodgers returning from an Achilles injury that had derailed his 2023 season after just four plays, but they have struggled on offense.
The Jets started six different quarterbacks in Saleh's four seasons: Zach Wilson (33 games), Mike White (7), Rodgers (6), Joe Flacco (5), Trevor Siemian (3) and Tim Boyle (2).
Saleh's tenure was marked by strong defense and poor offense, largely due to the quarterback instability. In his first season, the Jets drafted Wilson No. 2 overall, but he struggled mightily and eventually was benched and replaced last season by Rodgers, who tore his Achilles on the fourth snap of the season.
Worst record as Jets head coach
Robert Saleh's .357 winning percentage ranks as the worst in Jets franchise history among coaches with a minimum of 40 games at the helm.
| Coach | Record |
|---|---|
| Robert Saleh | 20-36 (.357) |
| Todd Bowles | 24-40 (.375) |
| Bruce Coslet | 26-38 (.406) |
Rather see him in Ohio! Looks like head coach needed an Offensive Asst. but with Roger’s age/condition that probably won’t be enough
Robert Saleh was escorted out of the facility by team security and was not allowed to meet with players or inform the team.
Robert Saleh will make close to 20 THOUSAND DOLLARS PER DAY from the New York Jets for about the next two years.

Terrible decision. Only one game under .500. Are they supposed to experience a stunning transformation now, under an interim HC who has never been a head coach before? This is the equivalent of throwing in the towel on the entire season. And the dumbasses opted not to take their bye week after playing in London, so they'll have only a week to prepare.
Jets demote Nathaniel Hackett, tap Todd Downing to call offense.
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- On his second full day on the job, New York Jets interim coach Jeff Ulbrich made a major shakeup on his coaching staff, stripping the playcalling responsibilities from embattled offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett.The move, announced by Ulbrich on Thursday, has an added layer of significance because Hackett is an Aaron Rodgers confidant. One of the main reasons why Rodgers wanted to be traded to the Jets last year was his close relationship with Hackett.
The new playcaller is Todd Downing, a former Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator who coaches the quarterbacks and holds the title of passing-game coordinator. He will have "the full say on the game plan and, ultimately, the plays that are called within the game," Ulbrich said.
"This is more a byproduct of a different take on things," he said, explaining his rationale. "I'm not saying it's a better or worse take on things by any means, but just a different take on things, a fresh approach."
