Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley addressed the team's midseason addition of Robert Saleh to the coaching staff this Thursday. Saleh's “fluid” role according to Packers head coach Matt LaFleur as a consultant was announced yesterday, as the former Jets' head coach quickly found another job in the league after being fired on October 8th.
When asked about Saleh, Hafley shed light on his longstanding frienship with the former San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator. “I talked to Robert probably every week for the past 12 weeks. Robert is one of my best friends in this profession,” Hafley told Packers' beat writer Ryan Wood.
