The Jacksonville Jaguars are among the handful of franchises forced to hit the reset button after a bad 2024 season. The Jags finished 4–13 and fired head coach Doug Pederson on Monday (keeping GM Trent Baalke despite all the negatives that come with that decision). Eyes now turn towards the offseason and who will be selected to get Jacksonville back to the playoffs.

Soon after making the call to send Pederson on his way, owner Shad Khan met with reporters to discuss hiring a fourth coach in the last five seasons. He was asked directly if star quarterback Trevor Lawrence would have any input on who was brought in. Khan said he talked to Lawrence, just as he talks to all his players, before taking an unexpected shot at Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets.
