Robert Saleh is in need of another job.
Following Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London, the New York Jets have made a final decision on the head coach.
According to Adam Schefter, the Jets are firing head coach Robert Saleh.
Saleh was under a lot of pressure this year, but he had Aaron Rodgers back after his Achilles injury in 2023.
The Jets are 2-3 and are not playing up to the standard they thought they would with a future Hall-of-Fame quarterback.

Despite having an all-time great quarterback in Aaron Rodgers, it’s been much of the same for the Jets throughout the first five weeks of the season.
Robert Saleh Could Never Get His Act Together
The struggles could be placed on many, but it is clear the front office is blaming Robert Saleh.
There’s only so much time for them to figure it out, and the Jets are now making their decision to move on.
In four seasons with the Jets, Saleh compiled a record of 20-36 with no playoff appearances.
The team will get their biggest test without Saleh when they face the Buffalo Bills in their next game.
They’ve had an excellent opportunity to win football games throughout the past two weeks, but they’ve instead done what the Jets have always done: lost games they shouldn’t have.
If things change drastically for the better, then the Jets made a great decision to salvage the 2024 season.
