It's a big news day for Jacksonville Jaguars fans. Not only were the team's new throwback uniforms revealed on Thursday, but Tom Coughlin, the very first head coach the franchise ever had, will be inducted into the team's special Pride of the Jaguars during the upcoming season.
And what's more, they're both happening on the same day. Coughlin will be inducted on the day the Jags will be debuting their classic unis: Week 5, Oct. 6, 2024, when Jacksonville plays the Indianapolis Colts.
"Everywhere I go and from every comment I read, it's apparent our fans are longing to see Jaguars' players in throwback uniforms," Jaguars President Mark Lamping said in a statement via the team website.
