New Jags head coach Doug Marrone said the following in a statement released by the team.
We are excited to announce Nathaniel Hackett as our offensive coordinator and he will immediately be tasked with installing and implementing our offense this offseason. I have had the pleasure of working with Nathaniel for seven consecutive seasons and know firsthand how knowledgeable and passionate he is about winning.
Kelly also interviewed for the head coaching gig as well. From 20-12 over his first two seasons to 8-23 over his last two, the fall from grace has been drastic for the offensive guru.
