NFL coaching changes: Jets, Saints, and Bears seek new head coaches after recent firings

espn.com

Three NFL teams have fired their head coaches as the regular season nears its end. The Jets dismissed Robert Saleh in October, the Saints let go of Dennis Allen in November, and the Bears parted ways with Matt Eberflus after a Thanksgiving loss. Interim coaches have been appointed: Thomas Brown for the Bears, Darren Rizzi for the Saints, and Jeff Ulbrich for the Jets. Each team now faces the challenge of attracting a new coach amid varying conditions, including roster strengths and salary cap issues. The Bears have a promising roster and significant salary cap space, while the Saints face financial constraints. The Jets have young talent but lack a clear starting quarterback and have a history of losing that may deter candidates.
