It’s been a wild week for NY Jets fans. The Jets struck a deal with former San Francisco 49ers’ defensive coordinator Robert Saleh on Wednesday night to become their next head coach.

Saleh is known for his high intensity, passionate love for the game in which he often exhibits on the sidelines. The Jets should be jumping for joy at the fact they were able to land such a hot commodity at the time in Saleh.

His job has officially begun.

Usually, the first order of business for first-year head coaches is to hire their coaching staff.
