The Jacksonville Jaguars now have a new coach in former Philadelphia Eagles coach Doug Pederson, marking a new era in team history. However, the process the team went through to get him left fans puzzled, but in the end, all that matters is that they didn’t come up with an underwhelming hire.
Pederson, 54, is a coach who will come into Jacksonville with several accomplishments, including a Super Bowl LII victory. He also won two NFC East titles along the way and finished with a 46–39–1 (.541) record before the Eagles let him go.
Now, after taking the year off, Pederson found his way to Jacksonville and his addition will pair one of the NFL’s better offensive minds with a young quarterback who has a ton of potential in Trevor Lawrence. As a result, ESPN’s Dan Graziano and Jeremy Fowler gave the Jags high grades on the signing, with the latter assigning the Jags an “A-” and the former giving them an “A.”
