Shad Khan has been a patient owner for the Jacksonville Jaguars, letting head coach Gus Bradley and general manager Dave Caldwell work through the long, arduous rebuild of the team. Four seasons in and it’s clear that Bradley needed to be released so the team could move on.
Bradley had the worst record in modern NFL history. It was almost time to simply put him out of his misery.
This is nothing personal to Bradley, it’s just business. You must win in the NFL. Shad Khan made that clear in his official statement after releasing Bradley:
I thanked Gus Bradley today for his commitment to the Jacksonville Jaguars over the past four seasons.
