The Jacksonville Jaguars denied an ESPN report that coach Doug Marrone would be fired after Sunday’s game. ESPN, citing a source, reported earlier Saturday that the team had informed Marrone that the home game against the Indianapolis Colts would be his last. “Reports that Doug Marrone will be dismissed after Sunday’s game are 100 percent incorrect,” read a statement from Jim Woodcock, a spokesman for owner Shad Khan. Prior to joining Bradley’s staff in Jacksonville in 2015, Marrone was 15-17 as the head coach of the Buffalo Bills from 2013-14. Marrone played parts of two seasons in the NFL as an offensive lineman with the Miami Dolphins (1987) and New Orleans Saints (1989).
