The Jacksonville Jaguars wasted little time in making a big move after their dreadful 2024 season came to an end, as they fired coach Doug Pederson on Monday morning, just hours after their Week 18 loss to the Indianapolis Colts.
The Jaguars had high hopes that Pederson, who led the Eagles to a Super Bowl title in 2018, would be able to turn quarterback Trevor Lawrence into a star and make the franchise perennial contenders. Instead, Pederson was able to win just one playoff game during his three years and was shown the door after the Jaguars finished 3-14 this season.
