Jets owner Woody Johnson says he fired Robert Saleh 1 day after meeting with Aaron Rodgers

NFL insider Jordan Schultz stops by The Facility to dive into the latest on Robert Saleh's firing, including why New York Jets Owner Woody Johnson solely made the decision and what is next for the Jets and Aaron Rodgers.

The New York Jets' firing of head coach Robert Saleh came just one day after a meeting between owner Woody Johnson and quarterback Aaron Rodgers, the owner said on Tuesday.

Johnson said he met with Rodgers on Monday night, just prior to the firing, but that Rodgers had no input in the decision made Tuesday morning, the owner told reporters on a conference call later in the day. Johnson also said no one had any input on the Saleh firing except for him.

Rodgers has not spoken out about Saleh's firing since it happened. Rodgers was originally scheduled to appear on ESPN's "The Pat McAfee Show" on Tuesday, but his appearance was pushed back to Wednesday.

The relationship between Saleh and Rodgers has been heavily dissected this season amid a series of questionable moments between the quarterback and coach. 

During a win against the New England Patriots in Week 3, Rodgers was seen rejecting a hug from Saleh. The coach told reporters after the game that the rejection was in response to staying focused on the game. 

"Part of the things that we’ve been talking about is to just get the defense a two-score lead," Saleh told reporters at the time. "And it was a two-score lead, so I guess he just wanted to see something on defense. He just reminded me that we got a two-score lead.
