The Jacksonville Jaguars are moving on from Urban Meyer after less than one season. Who are the top candidates available for 2022?
The Jacksonville Jaguars have officially decided to move on from head coach Urban Meyer less than one season into his time with the team. It’s safe to say absolutely nobody is surprised by this.
The question now becomes — who is going to coach the Jaguars and one of the best quarterback prospects to come along in quite some time — Trevor Lawrence?
Folks in Duval County have likely been asking this question for quite some time now, so there’s already been plenty of time to think about it.

What should the Jaguars be looking for?
In my opinion, the Jaguars and their management should be looking for a completely different type of coach than Meyer. Someone who actually knows how to relate to NFL players, someone who doesn’t belittle his fellow coaches and players on the team — you know, little stuff like that.
The Jaguars need someone who is going to be best for the development of Trevor Lawrence. They cannot compromise his development any further, so they will likely be in the market for an offensive-minded coach or a retread who could hire a sharp offensive coordinator.
Let’s take a look at the top options for the Jaguars on this head coaching market.
