Saleh Speaks on Jets’ Job Security, Mentions ‘Two Types of Coaches’

Third-year head coach just ‘trying to beat Washington’

The New York Jets have lost six of their last seven games and have been officially eliminated from AFC Playoffs contention.

It doesn’t appear, however, that New York’s ownership plans on sacrificing head coach Robert Saleh after the disappointing season comes to a close. Speaking to reporters one day following a 30-0 road loss to Miami, Saleh answered questions about his job security.

“I’m just coaching trying to beat Washington,” said Saleh on Monday. “Two types of coaches — those who have been fired and those who are about get fired. We coach in the moment. We coach to win a football game.”

In the home finale on December 24, the Jets (5-9) will take on the Washington Commanders (4-10) in an attempt to win for the sixth time this season. Regarding the potential for any coaching staff alterations before the Week 16 encounter, Saleh merely replied, “no.”

 

To Saleh’s defense, after Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles four offensive snaps into the 2023 Jets season, the realistic

expectations for the team were drastically altered. In the meantime, the

offensive line has had difficulty keeping the quarterback safe and healthy. With

255.1 yards per game, this offense is the lowest in the NFL overall.

Under Saleh’s leadership, the Jets will undoubtedly conclude the season with a losing record for the third consecutive year. Since taking over in 2021, the head coach’s record is 16–32.

 

Saleh further asserted that he got along well with Woody Johnson, the team’s owner.

 

“Woody is excellent. Every day when I speak with him, we discuss our game plan,” Saleh stated on Monday.
