Robert Saleh moves step closer to another head coaching job as ‘serious’ Titans finalist
NY Post
Robert Saleh has moved one step closer to becoming a head coach again.
Saleh is one of three known finalists for the Titans’ vacancy, along with Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley, according to ESPN, and NFL Network added that he’s considered a “serious candidate.”
Saleh, who coached the Jets from 2021-24, was initially slated to interview virtually with the Titans on Sunday night, but the team “collected enough information to move forward” to an in-person meeting Monday, according to The Athletic.
Saleh’s season as the 49ers’ defensive coordinator ended Saturday when the Seahawks dismantled San Francisco in the divisional round, 41-6.
But the 2025 campaign served as a reset, of sorts, for the former Jets head coach, who went 20-36 across three-plus seasons before getting fired midway through his fourth year.
He returned to San Francisco, where he worked under head coach Kyle Shanahan previously before taking the Gang Green job, and was forced to navigate a plethora of injuries to key stars — including edge rusher Joey Bosa and linebacker Fred Warner — throughout the year.
