The New York Jets sent a shock wave through the NFL today when they abruptly decided to fire head coach Robert Saleh. While Saleh seemed to be on the hot seat, the timing and way New York went about it was certainly eye-opening.
Jets Do The Unthinkable After Firing Robert Saleh; Fans Disgusted
According to NFL Insider Jordan Schultz:
Sources: Robert Saleh came into the building today business as usual. The decision of him getting fired was a surprise and it came directly from ownership. Defensive players in the building are shocked by it.
Interim HC Jeff Ulbrich is loved in the building and will take over. But this was a stunner to many in the building.
My understanding is that Robert Saleh was fired this morning and then escorted out of the building by team security.
There was no meeting with players to inform them or anything like that. He was in the building for work, and then he was out of the building and out of a job.
Here is a snapchat of Saleh’s coaching career with New York:
