Doug Pederson was introduced to the media and Jacksonville on Saturday, and of course, there is a lot to unpack as his press conference was over 40 minutes long.
However, no takeaway was bigger than what the Jags had planned for their front office structure with concerns surrounding general manager Trent Baalke. As many witnessed in the interview process, his poor reputation hurt the coaching search as candidates were skeptical to work with him.
Thankfully, it appears fans got confirmation on that and more. When asked about a structure around Pederson and Baalke, owner Shad Khan said the plan is to have an executive vice president and assistant general manager. That’s a scenario that would put someone above Trent Baalke and below him.
