Taylor is the first Jaguars Assistant to accept a new concert since the owner Shad Khan dismissed the head coach Doug Pederson, replacing him with the former offensive cooridator of Tampa Bay Buccaneers Liam Coen.
Coen has not yet fulfilled its coaching staff, but the team has kept the coordinator of the Heath Farwell special teams and research is underway for the rest of the staff. It is not yet known if Coen will keep other jaguar assistants.
Taylor joining Johnson staff is interesting given the Bears head coach interviewed practically with the Jaguars as part of the team’s first round of the team coach.

Taylor, 37, was with the Jaguars for three seasons as part of the original team staff of the team under Pederson.
Taylor joined Pederson in Jacksonville after spending five years with the head coach in various roles with the Eagles of Philadelphia.
In 2022, Taylor helped the team ranked 10th in total offense, 14th in yards on the ground per game (124.5) and 10th in yards per game per game. During the second half of the season, Taylor called the second half of the matches for Jacksonville, dividing the functions with Pederson. Jacksonville won his second title of AFC South, heading to the divisional Channel of the playoffs.
In 2023, Pederson widened the role of Taylor, appointing him the permanent game player of the team. Jacksonville’s attack ranked 14th in points per game (22.2), eighth in yards per game per match (257.5) and 19th in yards on the ground (96.9).
After a departure from 8-3, the team finished season 9-8, largely collapsing due to injuries, especially in the quarter-Arrière Trevor Lawrence.
Taylor again called games in 2024, but the team never rebounded after the disappointing finish. Jacksonville’s offensive took a dive before Lawrence underwent a shoulder injury that forced her to miss seven games.
The Jaguars finished 26th in points per game (18.8), 26th in yards on the ground per match (101.7) and 24th in yards per game per game (204.5), in a wood to a finish of 4-13 And by inaugurating the change.
Now the team will turn to Coen as a club manager and the new offensive game player.
