Report: Jaguars Fired Urban Meyer For Cause

The Jaguars fired former head coach Urban Meyer early Thursday morning after a tumultuous few months. It looks like the franchise will reportedly be looking to cut ties with him financially as well—immediately.

ESPN's Adam Schefter and Jeff Darlington reported Saturday morning that Meyer was fired "for cause," meaning the Jaguars would not be on the hook for what he's owed on the remaining four years of his contract.

Of course, that doesn't mean Meyer will just accept Jacksonville's decision. He may choose to obtain a lawyer and try to resolve the situation in a different manner.
