Udinski interviewed with Cleveland and Buffalo, while Campanile met with Miami and Baltimore, along with being a finalist for the Arizona job.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">It goes without saying, but this is a big win for Liam Coen and the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/teams\/jacksonville-jaguars\/365\" data-autotag=\"0e187629-debe-49e8-9e02-83bd36ad3fcc\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Jaguars<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Expert NFL picks: <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":body nav (nfl)|e|auto spike click:4|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_sp_a\" href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/picks\">Exclusive betting insights only at USA TODAY.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">In Campanile\u2019s first season as the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/sportsdata.usatoday.com\/football\/nfl\/teams\/jacksonville-jaguars\/365\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" data-t-l=\":b|e|k|\u2691u\" class=\"gnt_ar_b_a\">Jaguars<\/a>&#8216; defensive coordinator, his unit was one of the best at forcing takeaways, along with this unit surrendering under 15 points per game during Jacksonville&#8217;s eight-game winning streak.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">Udinski, meanwhile, played a key role in Trevor Lawrence&#8217;s growth and in the success the Jacksonville offense had over the second half of the season, averaging almost 33 points per game during their eight-game winning streak.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">After the Jaguars established a strong foundation in 2025 under Coen, Udinski, and Campanile, that continued continuity in scheme moving forward can be a catalyst behind both the offensive and defensive units taking another step forward this year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"gnt_ar_b_p\">With that said, it feels like it\u2019s only a matter of time before Campanile and Udinski are head coaches in the NFL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Updated Jan. 27, 2026, 4:16 p.m. ET The Jacksonville Jaguars announced some very good news on Tuesday.
