He’s familiar with offensive coordinator Jay Gruden

The Jags initially brought in McAdoo to interview him for their offensive coordinator vacancy but the job was ultimately given to Jay Gruden, who is a familiar face to him. Both coaches were once rivals in the NFC East and faced each other three times as head coaches.

For Doug Marrone’s sake, this is actually a good thing as he’ll have a strong group of assistants running his offense. The unit will be coming off a season in which they finished 26th in points (18.8 PPG) and 20th in yards (341.8 YPG) and both assistants are certainly qualified to get the unit where it needs to be.
