Fired coaches tend not to stay unemployed for long in most sports. The latest example is ex-New York Jets coach Robert Saleh.
Saleh turned up Wednesday on the field at Green Bay Packers practice, working with the offense.
Recently fired Jets coach Robert Saleh is at Packers practice. Long history between him and Matt LaFleur. Also has worked with Jeff Hafley.
We’ll hear from LaFleur after practice if he’s hired Saleh in some capacity.

Have to love the coincidence of Saleh, a longtime friend and associate of Packers coach Matt LaFleur, being with Green Bay, the former home of current Jets QB Aaron Rodgers.
“It’s a good opportunity for him and also to give us perspective on how teams might see us, how they might defend us,” LaFleur said of what seems like a part-time role.
