It's the end of the road for Doug Pederson with the Jacksonville Jaguars. On Monday, team owner Shad Khan announced Pederson's firing, leaving fans wondering about the team's future. Khan plans to work with General Manager Trent Baalke to find a new head coach who can bring back the winning spirit that was once strong in Jacksonville.
Pederson's time with the Jaguars began on a high note. In his first season, he led the team to a 9-8 record, winning the AFC South, and even secured a home playoff victory against the Chargers. The team started the 2023 season strong with an 8-3 record, but their performance declined sharply, finishing with a 1-5 stretch and a disappointing 4-13 season overall.
Quarterback Trevor Lawrence faced significant challenges this season, missing seven games due to injuries and struggling when he was on the field. With Lawrence under contract until 2030, the new head coach will have the crucial task of improving his performance.
