Coen's arrival in Jacksonville has been met with plenty of excitement as the team looks to rebound after posting a paltry 4-13 record this past season under the leadership of former head coach Doug Pederson and former general manager Trent Baalke.
Jacksonville's new head coach spent last season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where he led the offense to top 5 numbers in multiple statistics, including overall points passing yards per game, and rushing yards per game.
Before spending time in Tampa, Coen worked with the Los Angeles Rams and the University of Kentucky as an offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Now, he will be tasked with injecting life into a Jaguars offense that ranked in the bottom half of the league in yards per game, passing, rushing, and scoring.
According to Fox Sports NFL Insider Jordan Schultz, Coen could also play a large role in deciding who fills the GM role left vacant by the recent firing of Baalke.
"Sources say Shad Khan is so impressed with Coen that the two will collaborate on the team's new GM," Schultz posted on X. "Coen will have a real say in the process, and in turn, the direction of the franchise."
Ethan Waugh is serving as interim general manager, but if the organization decides to tap someone else to fill the position, the next major task for the Coen regime will be deciding what to do with the fifth overall pick in the NFL Draft, which is scheduled to begin on April 24.
