Just one day after committing to return as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' offensive coordinator, Liam Coen reversed course and is expected to be named head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Owner Shad Khan's decision to retain general manager Trent Baalke after the team fired head coach Doug Pederson was viewed poorly in early January. In the weeks since it has turned into a near-catastrophe that resulted in Baalke's firing on Wednesday.

Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen is taking himself out of the running for the Jaguars' head coaching job to stay in Tampa on a new contract, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen is believed to be one of the leading candidates for the vacant Jaguars head coaching position as he prepares for a second interview with the team. Coen, 39, is set to have his second interview on Wednesday, and he could be offered the job as soon as then, the Tampa Bay Times reported Tuesday .

Coen had reportedly taken himself out of the running for the Jacksonville job, but has since changed his mind.

The Jaguars announced Friday that they have agreed to terms with Buccaneers offensive coordinator Liam Coen to be the team's head coach.

In the 24 hours that saw Coen go from highest-paid coordinator to head coach, one team was left in the dark and the other found its match.

With the hiring of Coen, the Jaguars did right by quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Lawrence is not the only player the team needs to take into consideration when they make drastic changes, but as the franchise quarterback he is the one who the team will look to as a guiding light more often than not.

The Jacksonville Jaguars are zeroing in on their next head coach after the firing of Doug Pederson earlier this month. What does that have to do with the 49ers? Or the Buccaneers? Maybe everything.

The Bucs tried reaching out to Coen and his camp Thursday, but did not hear back as the coach traveled to Jacksonville to finalize the deal, ESPN's Adam Schefter added. Coen eventually got back to Bucs head coach Todd Bowles to inform him of the interview with Jacksonville, Schefter followed up.
