JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Doug Pederson, who won a Super Bowl with Philadelphia, is being hired as the new head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars, a league source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The hiring ends a search that began 49 days after the team fired Urban Meyer and 35 days after Pederson first interviewed with the Jaguars.
Pederson went 42-31-1 and made three playoff appearances in five seasons in Philadelphia (2016-20). The Eagles drafted Carson Wentz second overall and went 7-9 in Pederson's first season, but they went 13-3 in 2017, survived the loss of Wentz late in the season when Nick Foles got hot, and beat New England 41-33 in Super Bowl LII.
