New York Jets Fire Head Coach Robert Saleh Amid Disappointing Start

The New York Jets have dismissed head coach Robert Saleh after a rocky start to the NFL season, losing three of their first five games. Jeff Ulbrich steps in as interim head coach while the Jets navigate a season marked by Aaron Rodgers' return from injury.

The New York Jets announced the firing of head coach Robert Saleh following a disappointing beginning to the NFL season, marked by three losses in their initial five games.

Robert Saleh, who assumed the role in 2021 after his tenure as the San Francisco 49ers' defensive coordinator, leaves the team with a record of 20-36, failing to make the playoffs each year.

Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich has been appointed as the interim head coach, according to ESPN and FOX Sports. Despite starting the season with Super Bowl ambitions, the team's performance dipped after winning two consecutive games, including defeats to the Denver Broncos and Minnesota Vikings.
