JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Six years ago, Grant Udinski was living in his car in a Walmart parking lot at the start of his coaching career.
On Wednesday night, the Jacksonville Jaguars named him their new offensive coordinator.
The 29-year-old joined new coach Liam Coen's staff after serving as the assistant offensive coordinator/assistant quarterbacks coach for the Minnesota Vikings this past season. Udinski won't be calling plays for the Jaguars, however, as Coen said at his introductory news conference that he would be.
"Grant will bring a wealth of knowledge, energy and a winning mindset to help lead our offense here in Jacksonville," Coen said in a statement.
