Former Redskins coach Jay Gruden to interview for Jaguars OC position

Gruden is looking to get back into the coaching game after having a few months off following his firing in Washington.

Former Washington Redskins head coach Jay Gruden is possibly jumping back into the coaching game after having a few months off, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. Gruden will interview for the Jacksonville Jaguars offensive coordinator position.

Gruden, who was fired by the Redskins in October, cited that he was “itching to do something” after spending some time outside of the game.

The Jaguars are searching for a new OC after firing John DeFilippo following the 2019 season, though he only spent one year with the team. Now the Jaguars will look to revamp their offense under either Gardner Minshew or Nick Foles going forward, with Gruden helping them succeed, should he be given the job.
