The Jaguars fired HC Doug Pederson, according to multiple reports. This one was a lock. It was frankly surprising that Pederson made it through the entire 2024 season. He went 9-8 in his first two years in Jacksonville before an ugly 4-13 season that saw the Jags rank in the bottom 10 in points, total yards, rushing yards, and passing yards. QB Trevor Lawrence did not make any noticeable strides under Pederson's tutelage and recorded his worst passer rating since his 2021 rookie campaign this past year. The Jaguars are retaining GM Trent Baalke. We'll see who he tabs as his next HC.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence is expected to have surgery to repair the AC joint injury in his left shoulder, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Lawrence was set to play through the injury but sustained a concussion early in the Week 13 loss to the Texans. He won't play again this year but is expected to make a "full recovery" for the 2025 season, per Rapoport.

Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence is being placed on IR after suffering a concussion against the Texans. He would be eligibile to return for Week 18, but he likely will be shut down for the season. LB Azeez Al-Shaair was suspended due to the hit on Lawrence while he was sliding.
