New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh was fired by owner Woody Johnson on Tuesday morning, two days removed from the franchise's 23–17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings in London. After a disappointing 2–3 start to the season with what is believed to be a talented roster both offensively and defensively, Johnson chose to move on from Saleh.
While it is a bit surprising that Saleh was given a pink slip on Tuesday, it would have been slightly less surprising for a move to be made at offensive coordinator, as Nathaniel Hackett's unit has struggled and is a key reason for the team's slow start.
