• Coen named eighth head coach in Jaguars history
• Hiring caps unusual coaching search for Jacksonville

The Jacksonville Jaguars hired Tampa Bay offensive coordinator Liam Coen as the eighth head coach in franchise history Friday, capping a covert operation that included owner Shad Khan moving on from general manager Trent Baalke and Coen reversing course with the Buccaneers.

The sides officially agreed to terms a day after Coen called Bucs coach Todd Bowles and others to tell them he planned to sign with Jacksonville.
