The Jacksonville Jaguars hired Liam Coen as their head coach following a controversial coaching search that featured the ousting of GM Trent Baalke. Owner Shad Khan emphasized his commitment to success with Coen, who initially turned down the Jaguars due to Baalke's involvement. Coen had a brief commitment to remain with Tampa Bay as their offensive coordinator, but ultimately favored Jacksonville after a covert meeting with Khan and others. This swift shift illustrates the intensity and unpredictability of the NFL coaching landscape and the importance of decisive leadership.
Coen turned down an in-person interview with the Jaguars due to Baalke's presence, opting instead for a high-paying contract with Tampa Bay, but later ghosted them to pursue Jacksonville.
Owner Shad Khan took decisive action in firing GM Trent Baalke and securing Coen's hiring, saying, 'I also believe in being judged by action, not words.'
