The Jaguars ended its 2020 season Sunday.
Jacksonville lost at Indianapolis, 28-14.
Following the regular season finale, Jacksonville relieved head coach Doug Marrone of his duties. Marrone served as the Jaguars’ head coach from 2017-20.
“I am committed and determined to deliver winning football to the City of Jacksonville,” Jacksonville owner Shad Khan said the statement. “Realizing that goal requires a fresh start throughout our football operations, and with that in mind, I spoke this morning with Doug Marrone to express my gratitude for his hard work over the past four seasons as the head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars. I’ll always appreciate Doug’s passion, grit and class, and I’m confident he will enjoy success in the next chapter of his career.
“As the search for our new general manager continues, now the quest begins to find a head coach who shares my ambition for the Jacksonville Jaguars and our fans, whose loyalty and faith are overdue to be rewarded.”
Marrone was an assistant coach at the University of Tennessee in 2001. He served as tight ends coach and oversaw offensive tackles for the Vols under Phillip Fulmer.
Marrone became Syracuse’s head coach from 2009-12, compiling a 25-25 record and won two Pinstripe bowl games.
