Robert Saleh was recently unveiled as the head coach of the Tennessee Titans, and he brought his entire family along with him. 

Saleh, who was fired by the New York Jets last season, spent 2025 as the defensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers

The Jets haven’t done very well in his absence and have recently fired a lot more people. 

Saleh won’t care now. The 46-year-old was appointed as the Titans HC earlier this month but was only officially presented on Thursday due to poor weather conditions. 

He attended a press conference along with his wife, Sanaa, and their eight children, whom the team showed off via X.

They captioned a photo of their new coach and his family, “Saleh squad in the two tone blue.”

Fans were surprised to find out that the coach has so many kids, and they sounded off in the comments. 

“Damn coach Saleh be getting it CRACKIN 🤣🔥💪🏽,” someone joked.

“EIGHT KIDS? in this economy 😩 i mean i guess he can afford it hahaha,” another one wrote.

“He’s got 10/11 for his own team,” someone else mused.

“god damn wrap it up coach,” another user urged.

“him and philip rivers have enough for their own football team🤣,” one quipped.

“Mf saving humanity😭,” one comment read.

Robert and Sanaa got married in 2007 and wasted no time procreating. 

They have since brought six sons and two daughters into the world.

“My family. They’re my Why. I wake up every morning, kiss my wife, kiss my kids, every single one of ’em goodbye,” he told the New York Post in 2021. “They’re the reason why I wake up in the morning to do my absolute best.”

Meanwhile, the former Niners DC has signed a five-year deal with Tennessee. He will get to coach last year’s first overall pick, Cam Ward. 

Fans hope he will have the same effect on Ward as Ben Johnson did on Caleb Williams after a subdued rookie year. 

Of course, he’s a defensive-minded coach, so they would do well to keep that in mind.
