EX-EAGLES COACH PEDERSON’S NEXT GIG: THE STARS ARE ALIGNING IN JACKSONVILLE
By Max Harper
Doug Pederson has been biding his time since he ewas canned as coach of the Eagles last January.
Now is that time!
Before the Jaguars lost Sunday, 20-0, to the Tennessee Titans, NJ Advance Media’s Mike Kaye tweeted:
Doug Pederson is a perfect fit for Jacksonville from a personality standpoint. He also would be a great influence on Trevor Lawrence. I think if the Jags fired Meyer (they should), Pederson would be the most logical course for redemption
Pederson admitted in June he wants another shot on the sideline:
“The competitor inside wants to continue to compete. Hopefully, I get an opportunity to lead another football team and do the same things again and learn from the last five years—what a great teaching moment for me. I always talk about how we learn from failures and different things like that. I don’t want to say that this was a failure, but at the same time, I want to learn from the last five years moving forward in my next opportunity.”
