2025 NFL coaching/GM tracker: Jaguars fire Doug Pederson; Giants keep Brian Daboll

Now that the 2024 NFL regular season has ended, the coaching carousel is in full spin.

Let’s take a look at who’s staying and who’s going, and for those teams with vacancies across the league, who they have their eyes on early in the process.

Personnel changes

Chicago Bears (HC)

  • The Bears fired head coach Matt Eberflus after two-plus seasons on Nov. 29. Chicago went 14-32 over Eberflus’ tenure, including a 4-8 record with him at the helm in 2024. Thomas Brown, the team’s interim offensive coordinator at the time, is serving as the interim coach.

Cincinnati Bengals (DC)

  • The Bengals fired defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo, who held the position since 2019.

Cleveland Browns (OC, OL)

  • The Browns fired offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey and offensive line coach Andy Dickerson. The Browns, who finished 3-14, were last in points (15.2 per game) and 28th in total yards (300.8) per game this season.

Jacksonville Jaguars (HC)

  • The Jaguars have decided to move on from head coach Doug Pederson after a second straight disappointing season. Jacksonville went 4-13 this year, and Pederson lost 18 of his last 23 games.

New England Patriots (HC)

  • The Patriots are parting ways with head coach Jerod Mayo after one season as the successor to Bill Belichick. New England finished the season 4-13, last in the AFC East.

New Orleans Saints (HC)

  • The Saints fired head coach Dennis Allen after two-plus seasons on Nov. 4. New Orleans went 18-25 during Allen’s tenure, losing seven straight games to fall to 2-7 before parting ways with its head coach. Saints assistant head coach and special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi is serving as the interim coach.

New York Jets (HC, GM)

  • The Jets fired head coach Robert Saleh after three-plus seasons on Oct. 8. New York went 20-36 during Saleh’s tenure, going 2-3 to start the 2024 season before dismissing him. Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is serving as the interim coach.
  • The Jets fired general manager Joe Douglas after five-plus seasons on Nov. 19. New York failed to make the postseason once over Douglas’ tenure, holding a losing record in each season. Senior personnel advisor Phil Savage is serving as the interim general manager.

Who’s staying

Cleveland Browns (HC, GM)

  • Despite finishing last in the AFC North, the Browns are expected to bring back both head coach Kevin Stefanski and general manager Andrew Berry, according to ESPN. Stefanski, a two-time AP Coach of the Year, has brought the Browns to the playoffs twice in his five seasons in Cleveland.

Indianapolis Colts (HC, GM)

  • The Colts closed out their season with a 26-23 overtime win against the Jaguars, finishing with an 8-9 record and missing out on the playoffs for the fourth straight year. Soon after, team owner Jim Irsay affirmed his commitment to head coach Shane Steichen and general manager Chris Ballard. Both will be back in Indianapolis next season.

Miami Dolphins (HC, GM)

  • The Dolphins will be running it back with their head coach and general manager following a disappointing 8-9 season. Head coach Mike McDaniel and general manager Chris Grier will remain in their roles for the 2025 season, the team announced on Jan. 5.

New York Giants (HC, GM)

  • The Giants announced that head coach Brian Daboll and GM Joe Schoen will return for the 2025 season.
