Unbelievable the coach have agreed his mistakes and is ready to face the consequences
“Bad decision, bad advice from your friendly neighborhood coaching staff,” admitted head coach Robert Saleh, after defensive lineman Micheal Clemons of the New York Jets went through a sophomore slump in 2023. Speaking to the media on Thursday, August 22, Saleh said, “Obviously we tried to get him up to a certain weight to see if we can get him inside-outside. Bad decision, bad advice.”

A Large Amount of Public Criticism of Clemons Is Unfounded Clemons, 27, was chosen with the No. 117 overall pick in the fourth round and is about to begin his third season of professional football. His frightening size, distinct media interactions, and piercing stare all captured the attention of fans. Following his first campaign, David Wyatt-Hupton of “Last Word On Sports” referred to Clemons as a “hidden treasure.” Wyatt-Hupton stated vehemently, “The massive 290-pound defensive lineman may not be a household name now, but he soon will be.” In addition to being a powerful physical presence on the outside to stop the run, Clemons was also an extremely effective pass rusher.
As a rookie, the former Texas A&M recruit participated in 16 out of the 17 games. He had thirteen pressures, six quarterback hits, and 2.5 sacks during that time. Although the numbers might not seem impressive, Wyatt-Hupton acknowledged that they represent pressures on just 145 snaps, or one pressure every 11 pass-rush snaps. According to PFF, he also didn’t miss a single tackle the whole season. Considering how little playing time he had, he was very productive. On social media, Jets X-Factor Michael Nania stated that Clemons “had a pretty fantastic year” as a rookie.
