The Jaguars have made a big change by hiring James Gladstone as their new General Manager. This decision marks the team’s third major hire this offseason.
Gladstone joins head coach Liam Coen and Tony Boselli, who is the executive vice president of football operations. Together, they are stepping into leadership roles for a team that struggled last season, finishing with a record of 4-13. This is a different direction compared to their recent management, which included three coaches with prior head coaching experience and a general manager who had been in the role before.
Although Gladstone, Coen, and Boselli are new to their positions, owner Shad Khan is optimistic. He talked about the upside of having a fresh team in a recent press conference, saying, “Collectively, they’re going to have great success. They may be new, but they have a lot of potential to grow.”
Khan emphasized that experience isn’t the only factor in success. He believes their diverse backgrounds and fresh ideas will help the Jaguars succeed. This move towards a fresh start doesn’t just stop at the top; the team’s new coordinators for offense and defense are also stepping into their roles for the first time.
With this new leadership structure, the Jaguars are hoping for a turnaround. Fans are eager to see how these new faces will shape the future of the team.
