After having the 2021 season off, new Jacksonville Jaguars coach Doug Pederson has hit the ground running in terms of getting a coaching staff together. And while an offensive coordinator hasn’t been named yet, the offensive staff is coming along just fine. - According to ESPN’s Field Yates, the team hired former Minnesota Vikings assistant Phil Rauscher as their offensive line and run game coordinator. Yates also reported that the team has hired former Florida Atlantic offensive coordinator Andrew Breiner as an offensive assistant. - - Source: the Jaguars have hired former Vikings OL coach Phil Rauscher as their OL coach and run game coordinator. The team has also officially added Andrew Breiner as an offensive assistant. - Doug Pederson’s staff starting to take shape. - — Field Yates (@FieldYates) February 9, 2022 - - - Rauscher, who previously was the Vikings’ offensive line coach last season, brings eight years’ worth of NFL experience to the table. Before joining Minnesota, he made a stop in Denver (2015-17) as a coaching assistant and an assistant to the head coach and was on the staff for their Super Bowl 50 victory. Then from 2018-19, he joined Washington’s staff where he was an assistant offensive line coach under Bill Callahan, who is one of the league’s most respected offensive minds. - Rauscher had interviewed with the Buffalo Bills earlier this offseason, but it appears Pederson was able to reel him in and sell Rauscher on the vision he has  for the Jags. Rauscher, as a result, will now be replacing the Jags’ previous offensive line coach, George Warhop, who is now with the Houston Texans. - As for Breiner, Adam Caplan of Sirius XM Radio reported that he could be on the Jags’ radar last week as he worked under Pederson as a passing game analyst in 2020 with the Philadelphia Eagles. He will now join the Jags after spending the year with Florida International University as an offensive coordinator and receivers coach. - - Potential hire for Doug Pederson’s #Jaguars staff from #NFL source: - Andrew Breiner (potentially as QBs coach): Most recently as FIU OC last season, pass game analyst for #Eagles in 2020. Before that, passing game coordinator/QBs at Mississippi St. - — Adam Caplan (@caplannfl) February 4, 2022 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Jaguars Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Jaguars Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
