Mike Francesa crushes Robert Saleh for how he handled Aaron Rodgers’ absence

Mike Francesa remains bearish on Robert Saleh.

This week, the Jets head coach called Aaron Rodgers’ absence from mandatory minicamp “inexcused” before walking it back and saying he was alright with it, and Francesa let Saleh have it on his BetRivers podcast.

“Saleh — who doesn’t know how to handle any situation; he makes every situation worse when he gets in front of a microphone — handled this terribly this week,” Francesa said.

“If he’s OK with this then he just made it worse. He is a puppet in this game. He just showed you what a puppet he is in this game. It’s an inexcused absence, I’m fine with it. How can you be fine with it if it’s an inexcused absence?!”

Francesa, who ripped Rodgers for skipping the camp earlier this week, called Saleh’s comments oxymoronic.

“You can’t have both. If it’s inexcused, how can you be fine with it?” Francesa asked.
