Robert Saleh and the San Francisco 49ers are reportedly reuniting. Saleh is expected to be named the 49ers defensive coordinator, The Athletic reports.
He previously oversaw San Francisco's defense from 2017–20 until becoming the head coach of the New York Jets.
Saleh was reportedly going to interview with the Jacksonville Jaguars for their head coach opening, but didn't travel to Jacksonville as it became apparent that the Jaguars were focused on hiring Tampa Bay Buccaneeers offensive coordinator Liam Coen for the position, according to reports.
