Robert Saleh insisted no one was panicked about the New York Jets slow start. A day later, he was out of a job.

Owner Woody Johnson made the stunning decision Tuesday to fire Saleh five games into his fourth season after the teams 2-3 start following a 23-17 loss to Minnesota in London on Sunday.

This morning, I informed Robert Saleh that he will no longer serve as head coach of the Jets, Johnson said in a statement issued by the team. I thanked him for his hard work these past 3 1/2 years and wished him and his family well moving forward.

This was not an easy decision, but we are not where we should be given our expectations. And I believe now is the best time for us to move in a different direction.
