The Jackson Vel American Tigers recorded 4-13 in 2024 and had a fifth place at the 2025 NFL Draft Conference. After the season, head coach Doug Pederson was fired after three seasons. However, General Manager Trent Baalke retains his posture.
The owner Shad Khan said that the breakup with head coaches and General Motors in the same offseason will be the “suicide” of the organization. On Wednesday, Pirate offensive coordinator Liam Coen retired from the head coach search of Jacksonville. On the contrary, Cohen chose to be a coordinator with Tanpa Bay. This angered Khan and General Manager Trent Baalke for a few hours after being fired. According to reports, Balk is why Cohen does not want this job.
Four seasons, Trent Baalke served as a general car in Jacksonville
This cycle may not compare #JAGUARS Treat this. The top coach candidate has never been to Jacksonville, and Trent Baalke is still in place. Now, all the top names are rejected, and the team (owner) finally realized this. It’s a mess.

For a few weeks, the team has been interviewing the vacancy of the head coach position of the candidate. Patriots, jets and bear teams have found the next head coach in the 2025 season. Jacksonville is a specialized right to search. A report around the alliance said that the BUCS OC Liam Coen plans to conduct a second face -to -face interview with the American Tiger this week. However, Cohen withdrew from the head coach search.
There is news around NFL that the top candidate of the job does not want to cooperate with Trent Baalke. This is why the American tiger lost on Ben Johnson and Liam Coen. Baalke has been the general manager of the American Tiger since 2021. His first big move was to choose Trevor Lawrence for the first time. However, he also hired Urab Meyer as the head coach, which ended after only 13 games in 2021.
In 2022, Baalke chose De Travon Walker before Aidan Hutchinson. Because BAALKE takes over GM, only 9 of his 38 draft rights are full -time starting players. Due to Trent Baalke, he lost the head coach candidate, which was the last straw of Shad Khan. He told the media that he was “deeply committed to building winners” in Jacksonville. During the offseason, the team will need to hire new head coach and general manager.
