Aaron Rodgers
Robert Saleh: Fired from the New York Jets
2 months ago

Robert Saleh has been fired by the New York Jets, according to Adam Schefter.

After a loss to the Vikings in London on Sunday, the Jets owner, Woody Johnson, has decided that the franchise is moving in a different direction, after Saleh’s 20-36 record in 5 years. Defensive Coordinator, Jeff Ulbrich, will be the interim head coach.

 

The impact of this fantasy-wise is hard to know, considering Saleh was a defensive-minded head coach. Nate Hackett is still the OC (for now), and they still have 40-year-old Aaron Rodgers at the reins. The offensive output in the last 5 games to start the season has produced similar results as last year, so this firing makes little sense this early in the season with their “new” QB.

 

Watch for any news of Hackett’s firing, as that will have a direct impact on the skill players involved. The Jets’ defense, which has performed fairly well this year, despite key injuries, may take a slight hit from Saleh’s departure.
