  • On Jan. 22, 2026, the Tennessee Titans hired Robert Saleh as head coach and will formally introduce him at a Jan. 28 press conference.
  • Saleh said the organization, phone calls, meetings and the building convinced him Nashville fits because of the people and ownership he met, adding, `For me, this was the most desirable location, the most desirable team`.
  • One of 16 candidates, Saleh won the Titans job over finalist Matt Nagy after serving as San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator and coaching the New York Jets.
  • Signing a five-year contract, Saleh is tasked with restoring a franchise that missed four straight postseasons and posted 3-14 records the last two seasons, while the Titans requested to interview Aaron Whitecotton and consider Arthur Smith amid Senior Bowl activities.
  • Looking beyond the hire, Saleh's pedigree under Gary Kubiak, Pete Carroll and Kyle Shanahan and Jets defenses ranked among NFL's best in 2022 and 2023 shapes expectations despite missing Lions and Chargers openings.
