Report: Jets flying in 49ers DC Robert Saleh for second interview
It appears the New York Jets have begun to narrow their list of head-coaching candidates following the firing of Adam Gase.
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, the Jets are flying San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh in for a second interview on Tuesday.
Saleh's first interview for New York's head-coaching vacancy was last week. The 41-year-old has been San Francisco's defensive coordinator since Kyle Shanahan took over as head coach in 2017.
Saleh has been one of the NFL's hottest head-coaching candidates so far. He has also interviewed with the Atlanta Falcons, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars and Los Angeles Chargers.
The Jets have also reportedly interviewed Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, New Orleans Saints defensive backs coach Aaron Glenn, Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Brandon Staley, Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Joe Brady and Florida Gators head coach Dan Mullen.
