Jaguars players separate coach Liam Coen from 49ers assistant Robert Saleh after game
The FOX NFL Kickoff crew discussed which teams have met or exceeded expectations so far.
Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen and San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh had some words for each other after their Week 4 matchup on Sunday.
The FOX broadcast caught Coen yelling at Saleh as he was being guided away from the San Francisco assistant after the Jaguars’ 26-21 victory.
It appeared the first-year head coach was getting the last word after Saleh’s comments about the team’s ability to recognize their opponents’ signals.

"They’ve got legally, a really advanced signal-stealing type system where they always find a way to put themselves in an advantageous situation," Saleh said earlier in the week. "They do a great job with it. They formation you to just try to find any nugget they can.
"So, we’ve got to be great with our signals and we’ve got to be great with our communication to combat some of the tells that we might give on the field. They’re almost elite in that regard."
Saleh said there was nothing "illegal" about the scheme.
