Sources: Byron Leftwich in contract discussions with Jaguars, expected to be hired as new head coach

The Jacksonville Jaguars’ head coach search is coming to an end, and a familiar face seems to be at the top of the list: Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich. While the Jaguars have interviewed a number of candidates to replace Urban Meyer, Leftwich has been a strong contender for the position from the start.

According to league sources not authorized to speak publicly, the former Jaguars quarterback was involved in contract discussions with the team that launched Tuesday night after meeting with the leadership of the team, including owner Shad Khan, for roughly eight hours. Barring an unexpected breakdown in those ongoing discussions, Leftwich is expected to ultimately finalize a deal and become the Jaguars’ new head coach.

If this is legit, and it seem it is, this means that we are not getting this dude. Ah well.

Daboll or the D Coaches they have lined up to interview today, I guess.
Nope we're getting the darn FLU :sick:

Saints want to talk to him. If he's smart, take that job if offered.

However, it would also be a really cool story for him to go "home"and lead them to success after being a first round pick.

Fwiw, I don't consider him a bust. Injuries took a toll on him. Tough guy, for sure

Hi Dick Jauron I’m glad you have been rehired as the Bears coach.
