The 49ers are “expected” to offer their open defensive coordinator job to Saleh, according to Josina Anderson, a position he held with the franchise before becoming head coach of the Jets. First, however, Saleh will meet with the Jaguars and Raiders next week about their head coaching vacancies.

New York had several anonymous sources speak out to The Athletic detailing the dysfunction of the team over the last few years. Whether it was an overbearing owner, a general manager struggling to bring in the right players, or a quarterback demanding things be done his way, there were a lot of issues Saleh had to deal with.

The Las Vegas Raiders are setting their sights on the future following a lackluster 4-13 season in 2024. After parting ways with head coach Antonio Pierce and general manager Tom Telesco, the Raiders are focused on finding a leader who can establish a strong culture and bring consistency to the franchise.
