While the coach is widely respected in town, there wasn’t much of a choice after the worst season in the team’s 26-year history.
Marrone coached Jacksonville four full seasons and served in an interim role in 2016 for two games.
The Jaguars finished 5-11 in 2018, 6-10 in 2019 and finished the 2020 season on Sunday with a 28-14 loss to the Colts.
From the outset this season, it was apparent that 2020 wasn’t going to be kind to the Jaguars.
