The San Francisco 49ers have brought back Robert Saleh to once again be the team’s defensive coordinator, according to multiple reports. This news, as first reported by Mike Silver of the Athletic, comes amid a bit of a farce surrounding the Jacksonville Jaguars’ hunt for a new head coach.

Robert Saleh’s encore as 49ers defensive coordinator took on more likelihood as the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Las Vegas Raiders hired others to fill their head coach vacancies.

Robert Saleh has been a popular name mentioned as a potential candidate to succeed Aaron Glenn as the defensive coordinator for the Detroit Lions. The former New York Jets head coach is a Detroit native who was a finalist for becoming the Lions’ head coach when the team hired Dan Campbell.
