While the Jacksonville Jaguars are several months removed from Urban Meyer’s disastrous tenure with the team, they still can’t quite shake the stench he left on the organization completely. Tuesday was proof of that as the Tampa Bay Times reported that former Jags kicker Josh Lambo filed a lawsuit against the team to recoup his $3.5 million salary from 2021, in addition to damages for emotional distress.
The lawsuit is a result of the incident that the Tampa Bay Times reported back in mid-December, when Lambo alleged that Meyer kicked him before warmups in a preseason game against Dallas. In addition to kicking him, Lambo says Meyer called him outside of his name after the veteran struggled to consistently perform during the preseason.
“I’m in a lunge position. Left leg forward, right leg back,” Lambo said to Stroud. “… Urban Meyer, while I’m in that stretch position, comes up to me and says, ‘Hey Dips–t, make your f–king kicks!’ And kicks me in the leg.
