Jaguars

• Albert Breer from SI.com suggests that Lions OC Ben Johnson might be a better fit for Jacksonville than Chicago, given his capability to address issues and collaborate effectively with the GM.
• Breer expresses that he “can’t imagine” Jacksonville GM Trent Baalke remaining with the team in 2025 after previously surviving various coaching changes.
• As per NFL Media, despite a period of relative calm in Jacksonville, there is an internal forecast for significant changes, with Baalke and HC Doug Pederson both facing pressure.

Raiders

• Dianna Russini from The Athletic reports that the Raiders will grant Tom Brady a “huge voice” in all organizational decisions as a minority owner, reflecting how much owner Mark Davis values his insights.
• According to NFL Media, many believe that Raiders HC Antonio Pierce may be in serious jeopardy regarding his job security, as a disappointing 3-12 record does not sit well with Davis, Brady, and DE Maxx Crosby.
• While the players continue to show effort for Pierce, there are evident roster deficiencies. NFL Media acknowledges that Pierce is still adapting to his role, showcasing necessary learning experiences.
• If Pierce remains, reports indicate that there will be adjustments within the coaching staff. The Raiders released OC Luke Getsy during the season, along with QB coach Rich Scangarello and OL coach James Cregg. Interim OC Scott Turner seems to be a strong contender for the permanent position.
• Moreover, the report notes that DC Patrick Graham declined a contract extension this past offseason and will enter free agency at the season’s conclusion.

Titans

• As reported by NFL Media, Titans HC Brian Callahan and most of the coaching staff are likely to return in 2025. However, ST coordinator Colt Anderson might be an exception due to the unit’s struggles.
• The internal sentiment regarding Callahan is positive, with expectations for the offense to improve significantly in 2025, particularly if they can resolve issues at the quarterback position, which is a top priority.
• According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Titans RB Tony Pollard has the flu and is not anticipated to travel with the team. He has since been ruled out due to his illness and ongoing ankle injury.
• When asked about the scouting process for the next season, Callahan stated, “Not one bit… the scouting process hasn’t started yet for me.” (Paul Kuharsky)
