Jeff Fisher is back in professional football.

Former NFL head coach Jeff Fisher announced his appointment as the league’s new temporary commissioner to the media on Tuesday. The Arena Football League will have a well-known face in charge of the position, as Fisher was already the Nashville Kats’ president of operations.

Fisher led the Rams after serving as head coach of the Titans for 16 seasons. He was named the AFL’s Interim Commissioner three weeks into the 2024 season.

“This league is good,” he said. “We’re looking forward to continuing and finishing the season.”

Jeff Fisher is most renowned for his time spent as an NFL head coach, but before joining the Arena League, he was active in the USFL and the Alliance of American Football in 2019. In 2022, he was the head coach of the Michigan Panthers in the USFL.

With the Minnesota Myth, Philadelphia Soul, Iowa Rampage, and Georgia Force folding, the league is down from 16 teams to 12, so he has his work cut out for him, according to Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk. Williams brought up the fact that Fisher was being considered by a few league owners as a temporary commissioner Lee Hutton replacement.

Jeff Fisher hasn’t coached in the NFL since the Rams fired him in 2016, but he’s still stayed in the football world.

Instead of coming back to the league, he coached in the USFL for one season in 2022 with the Michigan Panthers.

Fisher was known as the head coach who mostly went 8-8 every season. With the addition of an extra game, it would be statistically impossible for him or anyone else to ever get that record again.
