Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a> coach Liam Coen and San Francisco 49ers<\/a> defensive coordinator Robert Saleh exchanged words following the Jaguars\u2019 26-21 win on Sept. 28<\/a>, three days after Saleh went public about the Jaguars\u2019 ability to legally \u201csteal\u201d offensive signals<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Saleh obviously meant the statement as a compliment in how the Jaguars and previous staffs connected with Coen were able to decode pre-snap defensive signals, but Coen clearly didn\u2019t take kindly to basically having his integrity questioned.<\/p>\n

The Coen-Saleh dust-up occurred on the field and Coen had to be led off by center Robert Hainsey.<\/p>\n

In the postgame press conference, Coen was given three chances by The Times-Union to address the situation.Coen\u2019s responses \u2026<\/p>\n

“It was not a big deal. Just keep that between us.”<\/p>\n

And \u2026<\/p>\n

“I’m going to keep that between us.”<\/p>\n

And \u2026<\/p>\n

“Nope, we’re just going to keep that between us right now. That’s it.”<\/p>\n

Said Hainsey: \u201cYou saw after the game what this meant to Liam.”<\/p>\n

A Jaguars source added: \u201cWhen you use the term \u2018stealing,\u2019 \u2014 I didn\u2019t know making adjustments or changing the play at the line of scrimmage was stealing.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jacksonville Jaguars coach Liam Coen and San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh exchanged words following the Jaguars\u2019…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":405438,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2060],"tags":[220,3689,247,265,1638,321,3690,7699,14621,7,219,5908,3688,20842,212,125,2401,213,1637,1642,330,88,6,35196,245,338,5358,5418,6043,7218,218,252,325,9,266,678,3691],"class_list":{"0":"post-405437","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jacksonville-jaguars","8":"tag-49ers","9":"tag-ai","10":"tag-american","11":"tag-american-football","12":"tag-coen","13":"tag-content","14":"tag-enabled","15":"tag-fl","16":"tag-fl-content-sharing-jaguars","17":"tag-football","18":"tag-francisco","19":"tag-hainsey","20":"tag-highlights","21":"tag-hub","22":"tag-jacksonville","23":"tag-jacksonville-jaguars","24":"tag-jacksonvillejaguars","25":"tag-jaguars","26":"tag-liam","27":"tag-liam-coen","28":"tag-negative","29":"tag-news","30":"tag-nfl","31":"tag-nfl-hub","32":"tag-overall","33":"tag-overall-negative","34":"tag-robert","35":"tag-robert-hainsey","36":"tag-robert-saleh","37":"tag-saleh","38":"tag-san","39":"tag-san-francisco-49ers","40":"tag-sharing","41":"tag-sports","42":"tag-sports-news","43":"tag-story","44":"tag-story-highlights-ai-enabled"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115285891130567804","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/405437","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=405437"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/405437\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/405438"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=405437"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=405437"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=405437"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
