What NFL Coaches Were Fired Today?
Keep up with the latest NFL coaching news by checking out our blog. We’ll let you know which coaches were fired today and why.
Introduction
NFL coaching changes are a dime a dozen, but some are more impactful than others. Here are the NFL coaches who were fired today, along with their records and what they accomplished during their time with the team.
NFL Coaches Fired Today
NFL Coaches that were fired today include Hue Jackson of the Cleveland Browns, Vance Joseph of the Denver Broncos, and Adam Gase of the Miami Dolphins. All three coaches have been relieved of their duties, effective immediately. This comes as a surprise to many, as all three coaches had only been with their respective teams for a few seasons.
Hue Jackson
Hue Jackson was let go by the Cleveland Browns today after a 3-36-1 record in two and a half seasons with the team. Jackson, who was hired in 2016, is the winningest coach in Browns history, but the team has struggled mightily since he took over.
Jackson’s firing comes as no surprise, as the Browns have shown little improvement under his leadership. In fact, the team has gotten worse each year he has been at the helm. This season has been particularly bad, as Cleveland is currently 1-15 and on track for the worst record in franchise history.
Jackson will be replaced on an interim basis by defensive coordinator Gregg Williams. It is unclear if Williams will be a candidate for the full-time job or if the Browns will bring in someone from outside the organization.
Dirk Koetter
Dirk Koetter was informed today that he will not return as head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2019. Koetter, who was hired in 2016, posted a 19-29 record in three seasons with the team. He led the Buccaneers to a 5-11 record this season.
Vance Joseph
Vance Joseph was fired by the Broncos on Monday, according to multiple reports. Joseph finished his first season as Denver’s head coach with a 5-11 record. The Broncos suffered a string of close losses this season, including three one-point defeats.
This is a developing story.
Conclusion
