JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville

The Jaguars will begin in-person interviews Wednesday, and the
decision is expected to land the franchise a first-time GM to
pair with a first-time head coach ( Liam Coen ), a first-time
offensive coordinator (Grant Udinski), a first-time defensive
coordinator (Anthony Campanile) and a first-time executive vice
president (Tony Boselli).
The other finalists are Chicago Bears assistant GM Ian
Cunningham, Los Angeles Rams director of scouting strategy James
Gladstone, Green Bay Packers vice president of player personnel
Jon-Eric Sullivan and San Francisco 49ers director of scouting

Baltimore and including a stop in Philadelphia before landing
with the Bears in 2022. Gladstone has been with the Rams since
2016. Sullivan has been with the Packers since 2004. Williams
has been with the 49ers since 2011.

assistant GM.
The Jags also interviewed six others for their GM opening: Los
Angeles Chargers assistant GM Chad Alexander, Las Vegas Raiders
assistant GM Champ Kelly, former Tennessee Titans GM Jon
Robinson, New York Giants assistant GM Brandon Brown, Buffalo
Bills director of player personnel Terrance Gray and Cincinnati
