Robert Saleh said he was surprised to find out he was fired as the Jets’ head coach on Tuesday. A report shows that he was thinking about firing offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett after the team’s loss to the Vikings in Week Five. Todd Downing, the passing game coordinator, was likely going to take Hackett’s place.
However, firing Hackett might have caused tension with quarterback Aaron Rodgers, since Rodgers and Hackett have a close history from their time together in Green Bay. Jets owner Woody Johnson said he didn’t talk to Rodgers about firing Saleh, but he might have considered Rodgers’s opinion if there were problems within the coaching staff.
Now, defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is the interim head coach, and Hackett is still leading the offense, which has scored the same amount of points as last season when Rodgers wasn’t playing.

This story is such a satisfying example of standing up for what’s right, especially when it involves defending family. When Mrs. Johnson dismissed the value of hard work and integrity by taking advantage of Ethan, she underestimated the power of a mother’s determination. This mom’s creativity in teaching her a lesson without causing real harm is clever and poetic—showing that sometimes, a subtle reminder is all it takes to bring a dose of humility.
The mulch delivery, the altered hedges, and the neighbors watching it all unfold turned this into a community-wide reminder that no one’s too “important” to treat others with basic decency, especially kids. Ethan not only received his well-earned $20 but also learned a valuable lesson about standing up for oneself and knowing there are people who will support you in doing so.
