Robert Saleh Tore Into Jets Offensive Line With Expletive-Heavy Rant on ‘Hard Knocks’
There are high expectations for the Jets in 2023 thanks in large part to the offseason acquisition of future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Add in HBO’s selection of the team to be on the hit show Hard Knocks and the hype surrounding the franchise as an AFC contender has only picked up more steam.
Despite all the talent on the roster and the potential for the Jets to make a deep playoff run, coach Robert Saleh refuses to let his players rest on their laurels. In the most recent episode of the show that aired on Tuesday, Saleh was seen ripping into the play of his offensive line during film.
“You can have a Hall of Fame quarterback, you can have two $10 million-plus receivers, you can have the reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year, you can have all kinds of skill in the running back room, but none of it f------ matters until the big boys up front change who the f--- we are,” Saleh said. “We as coaches, we as an organization, can’t want it more than you,” he added.
The pressure is certainly on the Jets to win now with Rodgers in tow, and Saleh is clearly doing everything in his power to up the intensity and urgency as the team inches closer to the start of the regular season.
