Former Jets coach Robert Saleh is now on the radar for two teams with head coaching vacancies.
The Raiders will interview Saleh, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.
Saleh has worked as a consultant for the Packers. As a result, the Raiders had to make an official request to the league for permission to interview him.
Saleh has an interview with the Jaguars on Tuesday.
Other candidates on the Raiders’ early list include Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken and Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. They are also reportedly interested in North Carolina coach Bill Belichick.
If Saleh doesn’t get another head coaching job, he will likely explore potential defensive coordinator positions, including a possible return to the 49ers in the role that brought him to the Jets job.
