There were a lot of letdowns from the Urban Meyer experiment, but perhaps one of the greatest was the Jacksonville Jaguars’ struggles in the special teams department in 2021. Meyer’s teams have historically been known for great special teams, but it was a problem last season. New coach Doug Pederson hopes to rectify that, and he’s off to a good start.
According to a report from NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Jacksonville has agreed to hire Heath Farwell as the team’s new special teams coordinator, a role he has held for the last three seasons in Buffalo.
The #Jaguars are hiring Heath Farwell as their special teams coordinator, per source.
Farwell, the former NFL LB and special teams ace, held the same position the past three years with the #Bills and now follows Doug Pederson to Jacksonville.
