The AFC South division is witnessing significant coaching changes, with the Houston Texans, Indianapolis Colts, and Tennessee Titans making notable additions to their staffs. Meanwhile, the Jacksonville Jaguars continue their search for a new general manager.
Texans Strengthen Coaching Ranks
The Texans have been busy bolstering their coaching staff. Former Eagles’ quarterbacks coach Alex Tanney has joined the team as passing game coordinator, bringing valuable experience and expertise to the role. Tanney’s addition is expected to enhance the Texans’ passing attack, which showed promise last season with quarterback C.J. Stroud at the helm.
Colts Shake Up Coaching Staff
The Colts have made several key coaching changes, hiring Justin Hamilton as assistant defensive backs coach and promoting Parks Frazier to quarterbacks coach. These moves aim to revitalize the Colts’ offense and defense, which struggled at times last season. Quarterback Anthony Richardson, who had an up-and-down sophomore campaign, will likely benefit from Frazier’s guidance.
Titans Add Experienced Coaches
The Titans have added two seasoned coaches to their staff: Frank Bush as linebackers coach and Steven Jackson as defensive backs coach. Bush brings over two decades of coaching experience, including stints with the Texans and Titans. Jackson, a former NFL safety, joins the Titans after coaching stints with the Dolphins and Bengals. These additions are expected to strengthen the Titans’ defense, which was a top-10 unit last season.
Jaguars’ GM Search Continues
The Jaguars’ search for a new general manager continues, with several candidates reportedly in the running. The team parted ways with former GM Trent Baalke in November, and since then, owner Shahid Khan has been leading the search for his replacement. While no timeline has been set for the hire, the Jaguars are expected to make a decision soon.
As the AFC South teams continue to shape their coaching staffs and front offices, the division is poised for an exciting and competitive season. The Jaguars’ GM search remains a key storyline to watch, as the team looks to build on last season’s progress.
