After their disappointing loss to the Vikings on Sunday in London, the Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh.

Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich will be the inteirm head coach, a source said. The Jets will host the Bills on Monday Night Football in Week 6 for first place in the AFC East.

Saleh had one year remaining on his contract that he signed in 2021.

“This morning, I informed Robert Saleh that he will no longer serve as the head coach of the Jets,” Jets owner Woody Johnson said in a statement. I thanked him for his hard work these past 3 1/2 years and wished him and his family well moving forward. This is not an easy decision, but we are not where we should be given our expectations, and I believe now is the best time for us to move in a different direction.”

Saleh registered a 20-36 record in four seasons with the Jets. This is the first time since becoming the owner in 2000 that Johnson has fired a coach during the middle of the season.
