#Jaguars have fired HC Doug Pederson, owner Shad Khan said in a statement.

Pederson served as the team's head coach since 2022 and went 22-29 in three years.

Jax finished 4-13 this year.

My neighbors often bring speakers outside or throw their truck doors open so they can play norteño for the whole street to hear. At 2 a.m., this is annoying. But at 4 p.m. when I'm finishing up an article, it's actually a vibe. 😌🤘

Column | Matt Gaetz is a miscreant who better resembles a barking Pensacola used car salesman than he does the figure responsible for the sober and fair administration of justice in the United States. This is a stunning pick even in our funhouse timeline.
