The San Francisco 49ers and head coach Kyle Shanahan have officially named Robert Saleh as the team’s new defensive coordinator. Saleh, 45, rejoins the 49ers after a three-plus-season stint (2021-24) as head coach of the New York Jets. His former player, Sauce Gardner, wasted no time reacting to the news of his ex-coach’s hiring. “Sheeesh🔥🔥🔥,” […]

Mere moments after news broke that Brian Shottenheimer was going to become the Dallas Cowboys’ new head coach, Tom Pelissero broke the news on social media that Robert Saleh was removing himself from the interview process to return to San Francisco as the 49ers’ new defensive coordinator in 2025. “Reunion: After interviewing for three head […]

Robert Saleh might be returning to the San Francisco 49ers as their defensive coordinator, a position he absolutely nailed from 2017 to 2020. Last season didn’t go well for the team, as they gave up 25.6 points per game, ranking 29th in the league, and ended with a 6-11 record under first-year coordinator Nick Sorensen. […]

In the crazy world that is the Jacksonville Jaguars, Liam Coen is back in the hunt and others may emerge as well.

The New York Jets are looking to turn a new page again. By hiring Aaron Glenn as their new head coach, the organization is hoping that the bad fortunes, luck, and circumstances that have plagued them since seemingly forever — and certainly since 2010-11, which is the last time they made the playoffs — will […]

In many ways the NFL is like poker. If you’re competing against 31 other franchises and you don’t know who the sucker is… you’re the sucker. The Jacksonville Jaguars found that out the hard way when their decision to retain Trent Baalke as GM hindered the team’s ability to land one of the top head […]

Although Robert Saleh was fired midway through the season, the Jacksonville Jaguars see all the potential with the former head coach. While his head coaching tenure didn’t go as planned, he’s proven to be an effective leader and has his players’ best interest. The franchise thought Doug Pederson would be that guy, but that wasn’t […]

The San Francisco 49ers lost their way during the 2024-25 season, finishing last with a 6-11 record. Injuries decimated the squad and played a significant role in their struggles, but something else was missing. The squad was a shell of itself on defense. Although Dre Greenlaw’s torn Achilles in Super Bowl 58 had a huge […]

The Jacksonville Jaguars became one of seven NFL teams looking for a new head coach after the 2024 season.

Pederson got off to a good start […]

The Dallas Cowboys are moving along in their first major assignment of 2025, as they determine who will become their next head coach.

Management did just host another individual, though. “Cowboys now have completed an in-person interview […]

The Dallas Cowboys were a disaster during the 2024 NFL season. Dallas finished the regular season at 7-10, completely collapsing after three straight 12-win seasons. The Cowboys missed the playoffs for the first time since the 2020 NFL season. Dallas recently parted ways with head coach Mike McCarthy and is now on the hunt for […]

The Green Bay Packers lost to the Philadelphia Eagles 22-10 to end their season on Wild Card Weekend.

Former Jets coach Robert […]

While in the process of searching for his next head coaching job, Robert Saleh has been serving as an offensive consultant for the Green Bay Packers after the New York Jets let him go earlier this season.

It came as a shock to most when the New England Patriots fired head coach Jerod Mayo after only one season being the successor to Bill Belichick who served for over 20 years. As the Patriots look for their next head coach, former NFL general manager Mike Lombardi would call out mostly the Patriots for […]

As speculation heats up in the San Francisco 49ers’ search for a new defensive coordinator, there seems to be fluctuation in who the franchise prefers to hire in 2025.

The New York Jets will wrap up yet another dismal season with Sunday’s home game against the Miami Dolphins.

[…]

The New York Jets are not in a good place, to say the least. But the dysfunction seems to keep growing every day, including on Thursday, when we have learned that owner Woody Johnson fired head coach Robert Saleh in October soon after Saleh had finished telling quarterback Aaron Rodgers he was demoting offensive coordinator […]

The New York Jets are no longer in the playoff hunt. Frankly, they’ve been out of the hunt for weeks, and they’ve potentially been out of it since early October when owner Woody Johnson fired head coach Robert Saleh. The idea was that point that having a four-time MVP quarterback like Aaron Rodgers on the […]

The New York Jets are back to square one with the state of the franchise. Following another hugely disappointing campaign, one where they had Aaron Rodgers under center for each of their matchups, it’s time to take a step back and build once again. Before the 2024-25 season, there were very few that could’ve predicted […]

Happy birthday to New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers. He’s now 41 years old and still playing NFL football, which is certainly something to be in awe of. Birthdays often bring on a sense of reflection, and being that Rodgers is known for getting in the dark and going inside his mind to find the […]

Former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh gave an emotional reaction to Joe Douglas’ firing. The former general manager of the Jets was with the organization for 5½ years, compiling a record of 30-64. Saleh worked with Douglas for more than three years, developing a close friendship, as they looked to rebuild a franchise that […]

When Aaron Rodgers was acquired by the New York Jets back in April 2023, the expectation around the league was that four-time MVP was just the guy to drag the Jets out of the NFL’s basement and bring one of the two teams playing in the Big Apple to relevancy. While the Jets have been relevant over […]

Aaron Rodgers has always been known as a “spiteful” quarterback, and that’s served him well throughout his career. That chip on his shoulder fueled him to four MVPs while he was with the Green Bay Packers. In a recent example, he was very clear that quickly making a comeback from the torn Achilles that stole […]

For the first time since firing Robert Saleh, the New York Jets got back into the winning column with a 21-13 nod over the Houston Texans.

The New York Jets are a mess. They’re 0-3 since firing head coach Robert Saleh, who was supposed to “save” their season. They’re 0-2 since trading for Davante Adams, which was supposed to be the other thing to “save” their season. They’re now 2-6 after losing to the New England Patriots (who came into Week […]

The New York Jets, who came into the season with what seemed like legitimate hopes to contend for a Super Bowl title, have fallen to 2-6 on the season after suffering their fifth consecutive loss, this one to the previously one-win New England Patriots. After the game, wo-time Super Bowl champion and current ESPN analyst Booger […]

Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley addressed the team’s midseason addition of Robert Saleh to the coaching staff this Thursday.

Former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh, who owner Woody Johnson fired following the team’s Week 5 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, is attending the Green Bay Packers’ practice today.

Needing a win in the worst way, the New York Jets (2-5) dropped their fourth straight game in Week 7, losing 37-15 to the Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2) on the road. As the losses pile up, the finger-pointing has begun, and it will likely start with Aaron Rodgers. As it should. Should the blame really fall […]

While evaluating two teams he knows very well, the New York Jets and the Buffalo Bills, in the lead-up to Monday Night Football, ex-New England Patriots head coach-turned-analyst Bill Belichick laid out a pretty big assertion: the Jets were premature in their firing of Robert Saleh.

Alongside their work together […]

Yeah, you didn’t go into the […]
