Jacksonville Jaguars Near Finalizing Offensive Coordinator Hire

The Jacksonville Jaguars are finalizing their coaching staff, focusing on hiring an offensive coordinator, with Nate Scheelhaase emerging as the leading candidate. Head coach Liam Coen has already secured a special teams coordinator and defensive coordinator, aiming to build a strong team around him. Meanwhile, the search for a new general manager is underway following the dismissal of Trent Baalke, with candidates including Ian Cunningham, Jon Robinson, and interim GM Ethan Waugh being considered. ESPN's Adam Schefter emphasized the Jaguars' urgent need for a new GM after their coaching search faced complications. Breer noted that Cunningham's experience with the Bears and Robinson's successful track record with the Titans make them strong contenders. The Jaguars are looking to make strategic hires that align with their new direction under Coen.
