Liam Coen is officially the new head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars, bringing a bold philosophy aimed at transforming the team's identity. Coen emphasizes the need for players to embrace a playing style characterized by aggression and tenacity, qualities that have been missing from the franchise for years. With a five-year contract in hand, he aims to instill this mentality in his players, particularly focusing on quarterback Trevor Lawrence’s development, given his recent contract extension.
Coen's offensive acumen was highlighted during his tenure with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he orchestrated one of the most potent attacks in recent NFL history. His appointment follows the dismissal of general manager Trent Baalke, paving the way for Coen to have significant influence in shaping the team's future. He has already begun forming a coaching staff, indicating a swift commitment to revitalizing the Jaguars.
