If there’s one thing Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone has stayed consistent on during his tenure as head coach, it’s that he hates (and I mean hates) final roster cuts during the preseason.
Marrone, a former offensive lineman himself who bounced around a couple of NFL teams before a stint in Europe’s World League, knows the pain of being cut himself and knows that dwindling a roster down to 53 guys isn’t a video game — it’s real life consequences for over a thousand NFL players every year.
Speaking after practice on Sunday, Marrone had some choice words for coaches who don’t empathize with the dozens of players they’re cutting every August.
