Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer spoke publicly Tuesday about Chris Doyle's brief tenure as the team's director of sports performance.
The Jaguars announced Feb. 11 that Meyer added Doyle to his staff for the 2021 NFL season. Doyle resigned one day later amid public outcry.
Addressing the situation Tuesday, Meyer told reporters he "saw the impact of the decision and the distraction it caused":
"The most important part of the organization is and always will be our players, and I just -- we both felt, we all felt, when I say both, Trent and myself, and then Chris Doyle felt it was best, that this team didn't need [any distractions].
