CONGRATULATIONS, DOUG!👏🏈🙏 After a remarkable, worst-to-first turnaround, Pederson was named the AFC Coach of the Year by the 101 Awards.
After a remarkable, worst-to-first turnaround, Pederson was named the AFC Coach of the Year by the 101 Awards on Tuesday afternoon. Pederson helped turn the Jaguars from picking No. 1 overall in each of the last two drafts to winning the AFC South and reaching the divisional round of the playoffs.
Jacksonville went 1-15 and 3-14 in 2020 and 2021, miserable seasons under Doug Marrone and Urban Meyer, respectively. The franchise was in desperate need for stability and found it in Pederson. The Jaguars went 9-8 in the regular season, beat the Chargers in the wild-card playoffs and then lost to the Chiefs last week in the second round.
A Super Bowl champ with the Eagles, Pederson helped reset the culture in Jacksonville in a hurry. His work with Trevor Lawrence helped the No. 1 overall pick in 2021 develop into the franchise player he was expected to be. The 101 Awards have handed out top player and coaches of the year honors every season since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. The awards will be handed out at the 53rd 101 Awards Gala on Feb. 25 in Kansas City.Marrone won the honor in 2017
after leading the Jaguars to the AFC championship game. Former Jaguars star Calais Campbell earned AFC Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2017. The NFL Coach of the Year is a different award and voted on by members of the Associated Press. That is announced during the NFL Honors ceremony before the Super Bowl.
