What has made Jacksonville Jaguars' head coach Liam Coen successful at his previous stops, specifically when working with the quarterback position?
LA Rams' head coach Sean McVay provided some insight during the NFL's annual league meeting. Coen coached under McVay during two different stints, the second of which he was the offensive coordinator.
As McVay described, Coen's background of playing the quarterback position himself at a high level--Coen played the position at Massachusetts in college--gives him a better understanding of what the quarterbacks he is coaching are going through, which in turn, helps him adjust to what they need.
