NFL Coaches Fired in 2024NFL Coach Fired OddsFavorites To Be Fired FirstWhich NFL Coach Will Be Fired First?NFL Black Monday The NFL coaching carousel refers to the comings and goings of head coaches in the league. Typically, it’s due to head coaches being fired for not meeting the expectations of the front office or the owner. Last year, we saw eight coaches get axed during and after the season. This year, we’ve already seen two head coaches get axed and there are plenty more on the proverbial hot seat. Heading into the 2024-24 NFL season, New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen (+275) was the odds-on favorite to get fired first. However, the New York Jets canned Robert Saleh (+900)

This puts the host Tigers, who have shown a recent resurgence, in a spoiler’s role when the teams meet Saturday in Clemson, S.C. “They’re the old Clemson again,” North … more

The Cardinals, No. 10 in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, will travel to Coral Gables, Fla., on Saturday for a clash against Miami.

This will be the Longhorns’ final road game as a member of the Big 12 as Texas (and Oklahoma) move to the Southeastern Conference in 2024.
