The #Jets chose Robert Saleh as their new head coach in part because of his leadership abilities. Running one of the NFL’s best defenses doesn’t hurt, either. He went into the process believing the Jets had one of the top openings. And he landed it.
Text from @49ers GM John Lynch on Robert Saleh: "Robert's earned this opportunity. He's smart, a tremendously gifted leader and ready for this challenge. We'll miss him dearly but he's left us better and we'll be proud of all that he'll accomplish. The @Jets are very fortunate."
The Jets & Robert Saleh agree to a 5-year deal for him to become their next head coach.
The 49ers defense ranked in the Top 10 in yards per game, 3rd down pct, and defensive efficiency since Saleh became the 49ers defensive coordinator in 2017. pic.twitter.com/EFhs53GG4F
