The New York Jets have reportedly narrowed their list of head coaching candidates, and defensive coordinator Robert Saleh is the first known finalist.
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garofalo, the Jets are flying Saleh in for a second interview Tuesday and there will likely be others who receive the same treatment.
The Jets are in search of a new head coach after the firing of Adam Gase, who went just 9-23 in two seasons at the helm, including a 2-14 mark this season.
Per Brian Costello of the New York Post, other candidates the Jets have either interviewed or plan to include Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Brandon Staley, Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator Arthur Smith, Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Joe Brady, former Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis and New Orleans Saints defensive backs coach Aaron Glenn.
