With two postseason games taking place on Saturday already and two more set to take place on Sunday, the Jacksonville Jaguars’ head coaching search could be concluding in the coming days. That means the team might be ready to conduct some additional second interviews as Indianapolis defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus is the only known candidate to receive such an opportunity from them.
Among those who the Jags could contact again is former Detroit Lions and Indianapolis Colts coach Jim Caldwell, who ESPN previously reported had declined interviews with the Las Vegas Raiders and Minnesota Vikings after accepting interviews from the Jags and Chicago Bears. However, according to Caldwell that isn’t the case.
I would like to correct an erroneous report that I turned down opportunities to interview for the head coaching job with Minnesota and Las Vegas. Those reports are not true (Full statement below). pic.twitter.com/lX6RNZLehz
