The Jacksonville Jaguars have ripped off the Band-Aid and fired general manager Trent Baalke on Wednesday. Jacksonville went 25-43 in Baalke's four seasons as general manager with one playoff appearance in 2022 when the team reached the AFC divisional round.

Jacksonville Jaguars owner Shad Khan finally dismissed GM Trent Baalke on Wednesday, but it's a move that should have been made weeks ago.

Baalke had been the general manager of the Jaguars since 2021 and was in the process of seeking out the third head coach of his tenure with the team before his dismissal on Wednesday. Interim GM Ethan Waugh will have his work cut out for him as he looks to make up for lost time when it comes to finding the franchise's next coach.
