history

Foundation (1989–1994)

Jacksonville sought long NFL franchises, resulting in the formation of Touchdown Jacksonville in 1989 ! , a group of entrepreneurs. Group members included the future governor of Florida , Jeb Bush , and the future owner Wayne Weaver . In 1991 the NFL announced that it wanted to expand the league by two franchises. It would be the first expansion since the Seattle Seahawks and Tampa Bay Buccaneers joined in the 1976 season . Touchdown Jacksonville! then officially submitted an application for an NFL team and Jacksonville was ultimately selected as one of five candidates. Other applicants were Charlotte , St. Louis , Baltimore and Memphis . With the metropolitan area and TV market smaller, and with NFL teams in the area, Jacksonville was treated as an underdog. After the failure of negotiations with the City of Jacksonville, Touchdown moved Jacksonville! in July 1991 the application returned.

Because Jacksonville had other virtues, such as the popularity of American football and the strong support of the University of Florida and Florida State University teams, and the growth of the Southeast, a group led by Wayne Weaver reconsidered the candidacy. Jacksonville received support from NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue , NFL President Neil Austrian , its Vice Presidents, Roger Goodell , Bud Adams of the Houston Oilers , Rankin Smith of the Atlanta Falcons and Ken Hofmann of the Seattle Seahawks . After successful negotiations with the city, who agreed to the Gator Bowl for 121 million dollars to renovate, and a pre-sale of 10,000 season tickets, the group applied again.

In October 1993, Charlotte was the first to win, making the Carolina Panthers the 29th team in the NFL. Although St. Louis and Baltimore were the favorites, on November 30, 1993, the owners of the NFL teams decided, surprisingly to many observers, with 26-2 votes for Jacksonville as the 30th franchise. After the approval, a decision was made against renovating the Gator Bowl and building a new one. In the 19 ½ months of construction, the Gator Bowl was demolished and the Jacksonville Municipal Stadium, now TIAA Bank Field, built.

The Tom Coughlin Era (1995-2002)

1995: the first year

Tom Coughlin was the Jacksonville Jaguars' first head coach .

The 1995 season began for the two new clubs with the Expansion Draft . As the first player drafted the Jaguars quarterback Steve Beuerlein , who lost his starting position to the former substitute for the Green Bay Packers , Mark Brunell . With Brunell, offensive lineman Tony Boselli , running back James Stewart and wide receiver Jimmy Smith , the Jaguars' squad included several players who played a key role in the success of the following four seasons.

The first game of the regular season , which they lost 3:10 against the Houston Oilers , played the Jaguars on September 3, 1995 at home in front of 72,363 spectators. The first victory they achieved in the fourth week, when they won on October 1 at 17:16 in Houston. In the following game, the Jaguars won their first home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers with 20:16. They defeated the opponent in two more games, including a game against the Cleveland Browns in week 17, the last game of the Browns before they moved to Baltimore and the associated renaming in Ravens . With four wins, the Jaguars broke the record for most wins by an expansion team, which the Cincinnati Bengals set up with three wins in 1968, but were not the new record holder because the Panthers ended their season with seven wins.

1996: The first play-offs

The 1996 season was in two parts: After a moderate first half, the Jaguars won six of the last seven games and ended with a record of nine wins and seven losses. Quarterback Mark Brunell threw over 4000 yards , and wide receivers Keenan McCardell and Jimmy Smith each gained over 1000 yards. The Jaguars needed a final game win against the Atlanta Falcons to get into the play-offs , which they achieved after Morten Andersen , one of the most successful kickers in NFL history, tried a field goal from Atlanta from a distance of 30 yards that would have put Atlanta in the lead just before the end. The Jaguars got the fifth place in the AFC for the play-offs.

In their first play-off game, the Jaguars faced the Buffalo Bills . The Jaguars won 30:27 despite being underdogs and faced the Denver Broncos in the following game . The Broncos finished the regular season with a record of 13 wins and 3 losses and were considered the best team in the AFC at the time. Although the Broncos took an early lead with two touchdowns in the first quarter, the Jaguars dominated, winning the game 30:27 in the end. This success is considered to be one of the biggest surprises in NFL play-off history. The winning streak ended in the AFC Championship Game when the Jaguars lost 6:20 to the New England Patriots . It was the first time since the NFL and AFL merged in 1970 that two expansion teams were playing in a Conference Championship game at the same time, as the Carolina Panthers moved into the NFC Championship Game , which they played against eventual Super Bowl winner Green Bay Packers , lost.

1997–1999: years of success

The 1997 season of the Jaguars was positive with a record of eleven wins and five defeats. With the Pittsburgh Steelers tied for a tie , there was a divisional tie-breaker . Since Pittsburgh had the better win ratio within the AFC Central , the Jaguars were second in the division and therefore got the fifth place in the AFC for the second time in a row. For the Jaguars, the post-season ended in the wildcard play-offs when they lost to the Denver Broncos 17:42.

In the 1998 season , the Jaguars won their first division title after they again achieved eleven wins in five losses. They became the first expansion team to reach the play-offs three times in the first four seasons. In the first play-off game, which was also the first home game during the play-offs, the Jaguars won against the New England Patriots with 25:10, but were eliminated after a 24:34 defeat in the following game against New York Jets off.

The 1999 season was the most successful for the Jacksonville Jaguars to date. The regular season ended with a record of 14 wins and 2 losses, the best result in its franchise history so far, both of which were games against the Tennessee Titans . With this record they won the AFC Central for the second time in a row and this time had the best record of the entire AFC. The Jaguars won 62-7 against the Miami Dolphins in the Divisional Play-offs, Dan Marino and Jimmy Johnson's last NFL game . Jacksonville's 62 points and 55 point difference are the second highest in NFL play-off history, and Fred Taylor's 90-yard run in the first quarter is the longest run in play-off history.

The attempt to bring the Super Bowl title to Jacksonville ended again in the AFC Championship Game, in which the Jaguars again played against the Tennessee Titans. After the Jaguars were leading at 14:10 at halftime, they allowed 23 points in the second half without scoring any themselves. So they had to accept all three defeats this season against the same opponent. This defeat is considered to be the end of an era for the Jaguars, as the next play-off participation came six years later.

2000–2002: The end of an era

In the following period, the history of the Jaguars was marked by sporting failure and problems with the salary cap . For example, in 2000 the Jaguars were 33 million US dollars above the targeted salary cap. In the 2000 season , the Jaguars achieved only 7 wins and 9 losses, the 2001 and 2002 seasons they ended with a record of 6 wins and 10 losses.

After the 2002 season, Head Coach Tom Coughlin was sacked after eight seasons in which he had led the Jaguars to 68 wins, 60 losses and 4 play-offs. After the restructuring of the NFL in 2002 and the associated division of the franchises into eight divisions, the Jaguars came with the Indianapolis Colts , the Tennessee Titans and the 2002 expansion team, the Houston Texans , in the AFC's Southern Division .

Jack del Rio was the second head coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Jack Del Rio Era (2003-2011)

2003–2004: reconstruction

In the 2003 season , the Jaguars signed Jack Del Rio as their new head coach. Del Rio, who played as a linebacker in the 1980s and 1990s, placed great emphasis on defense . The Jaguars selected quarterback Byron Leftwich with the seventh pick in the NFL draft, which fans had high hopes for. Leftwich came on for Brunell in the second half of the third game of the season. It was the last time Brunell played for the Jaguars. Brunell scored 25,000 yards for the Jaguars and was called up to the Pro Bowl three times . Still, expectations were not met, and the Jaguars ended the season with four wins and eleven losses, missing the play-offs for the fourth time in a row. Despite the solution to the salary cap problems, rebuilding the team took longer than expected.

The 2004 season ended the Jaguars with nine wins and seven losses, the first season since 1999 with more wins than losses. The defense of the Jaguars with the two pro bowlers Marcus Stroud and John Henderson was considered strong. Byron Leftwich had a solid season, which was mainly due to the coordination with running back Fred Taylor and receiver Jimmy Smith . After a season-ending injury to Taylor, the Jaguars lost two games, which excluded the play-off participation of the Jaguars and made the Super Bowl in their own stadium no longer possible. In 2004, the Jaguars became the first NFL team to have three dark-skinned quarterbacks in their squad.

2005–2007: Back to the play-offs

In 2005 the Jaguars hoped to play the division victory. The Jaguars were able to achieve 12 wins in the regular season, as the division rival from Indianapolis recorded more wins, but the team from Jacksonville was only second in the AFC South, but could qualify for the play-offs. There, however, the Jaguars lost in the first game against the New England Patriots and were eliminated.

With the success in the previous season, the Jaguars were confident of reaching the play-offs in the 2006 season . After injuries to key performers, however, the Jaguars' performance deteriorated. They ended the season with eight wins and just as many defeats, which means they missed the play-offs.

After major restructuring of the squad (the Jaguars put the long-time replacement quarterback David Garrard as starting quarterback and dismissed Byron Leftwich) the 2007 season was successful. Garrard led the Jaguars to eleven wins and five losses, which led to participation in the play-offs. On January 5, 2008, the Jaguars won their first play-off game in eight years when they defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers with 31:29. In the following divisional play-off game, the Jaguars lost to the New England Patriots, who were unbeaten this season.

2008–2011: The last years under Jack del Rio

The 2008 season began with the signing of wide receiver Jerry Porter and rookie defensive ends Quentin Groves and Derrick Harvey . Journalists such as ESPN reporter Kevin Seifert trusted the Jaguars to participate in the Super Bowl. The Jaguars could not meet these expectations and ended the season with five wins and eleven losses. A series of losses by players from the offensive line caused major problems during the season . Guards Vince Manuwai and Maurice Williams were injured in the first quarter of the season opener, and Tackle Richard Collier had to retire after he was attacked in September 2008 and shot 14 times. Center Brad Meester was absent for the first two months of the season, and guard Chris Naeole was injured in training. In 2008, Fred Taylor left the Jaguars after 11 years and over 10,000 yards for Boston.

The Jaguars hired Gene Smith, their first general manager in franchise history , in 2009 . In the 2009 NFL Draft, he selected Eugene Monroe , Terrance Knighton , Derek Cox , Eben Britton and Mike Thomas, several players who were key performers this season. The Jaguars ended the season with seven wins and nine losses, which means they again missed the play-offs. During the offseason, the Jaguars parted ways with John Henderson and Reggie Hayward as part of their team rejuvenation .

Entry of the Jaguars (2009).

The 2010 season seemed to be a good one for the Jaguars. Running back Maurice Jones-Drew ran the league's second-most yards and David Garrard threw 23 touchdowns, a franchise record. Marcedes Lewis was nominated for his first Pro Bowl, and the Jaguars had one of the best defensive tackle duos with Terrance Knighton and rookie Tyson Alualu . In early December, the Jaguars were still leading the AFC South; after losing the last three games, however, they finished second and did not qualify for the play-offs with eight wins and as many defeats.

In the 2011 season draft , the Jaguars swapped their first- and second-round picks to have the tenth overall pick they used to draft quarterback Blaine Gabbert . On September 6, 2011 quarterback David Garrard was released shortly before the start of the season and Luke McCown was the new starting quarterback . McCown started in two games before being replaced by Blaine Gabbert. The Jaguars' offense was not successful even under the rookie quarterback, so the Jaguars under Gabbert lost the first four games in a row and only won their first win in the seventh game against the Baltimore Ravens .

On November 29, 2011, owner Wayne Weaver announced the sacking of Jack Del Rio, who won only three times in the first eleven games of the season.

Years of Change (2011-2012)

2011–2012: Change of coach and owner

Shahid Khan acquired the Jaguars in 2012

After Del Rio was fired , Defensive Coordinator Mel Tucker was appointed interim coach. In addition, the contract extension with General Manager Gene Smith by three years was announced. Shortly afterwards, Weaver announced that he had sold the franchise to entrepreneur Shahid Khan . In addition, Mark Lamping became the first team president since 1997.

On 10 January 2012, the former offensive coordinator was the Atlanta Falcons , Mike Mularkey , presented as the new head coach of the Jaguars. Mel Tucker became defensive coordinator again and former Falcons quarterbacks coach Bob Bratkowski became offensive coordinator. The Jaguars only managed to win two of the sixteen games, the worst season record in franchise history. As a result, General Manager Gene Smith and Head Coach Mike Mularkey were fired after the season .

NFL International Series

On August 21, 2012, the Jaguars announced that they would play an annual home game between 2013 and 2016 as part of the NFL International Series at London's Wembley Stadium . The first game took place on October 27, 2013 against the San Francisco 49ers .

The Gus Bradley Era (2013-2016)

Blake Bortles was quarterback for the Jacksonville Jaguars from 2014 to 2018.

On January 8, 2013, the former player representative was Atlanta Falcons , David Caldwell , set as the second general manager in the history of Jaguar. His first task was to find a new head coach. Nine days later, the former defensive coordinator was the Seattle Seahawks , Gus Bradley , presented as the new head coach of the Jaguars. After losing their first eight games, the Jaguars won their first game under Bradley in November.

While the Jaguars ended the season with four wins and twelve losses, they swapped Blaine Gabbert for the San Francisco 49ers and received in return a six-round pick for the 2014 NFL Draft. Maurice Jones-Drew left the Jaguars after seven years for Oakland.

In the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft, Jaguars selected quarterback Blake Bortles of the University of Central Florida and wide receiver Marqise Lee of the University of Southern California in the second round. The new additions should bring the team more trust and success. The Jacksonville franchise ended the season with 3 wins and 13 losses.

The 2015 season began for the Jaguars with a few player changes. For example, the Jaguars gave their long-time kicker Josh Scobee to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but also got star tight end Julius Thomas . On December 13, 2015, they were able to score more than 50 points for the first time in a regular season game in the 51:16 win against the Indianapolis Colts. Despite this success, the Jaguars could only win 5 games this season and therefore missed the play-offs again.

In the season 2016 , the Jaguars went with a high salary cap, which they used to in the offseason to strengthen before the Draft, among others, Chris Ivory , Tashaun Gipson , Prince Amukamara and Malik Jackson , with a contract for 89 Million US dollars set a franchise record. Because of this, many experts saw the Jaguars as favorites for a play-off participation. These expectations could not be met, which is why Bradley was fired after fourteen games with only two wins.

Back to the play-offs

Doug Marrone was appointed as interim head coach , who finished one of the remaining two games victorious. After the season he was named head coach of the Jaguars. In 2017 , the Jaguars won ten games with six defeats, which they won the AFC South. In their first play-off game in Jacksonville since 2000, they won against the Buffalo Bills . In the Divisional Round, the Jaguars defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 45:42 thanks to strong rookie running back Leonard Fournette. This moved them into the AFC Championship Game, where they met the New England Patriots. The Jaguars were able to dominate for a long time and were in the lead at 20:10 at the beginning of the fourth quarter. However, the Jaguars could not hold the lead and ultimately lost 20:24.

In 2018 , the Jaguars defense was able to achieve significantly fewer sacks and turnover than in the previous season, but it was still one of the best in the league. The offense of the Jaguars could only take 27th place in the league due to the injury-related loss of Fournette and poor performance by quarterback Bortles, who was demoted to backup from weeks 13 to 16. The team therefore ended the season last in the division with just five wins. At the end of the season, the Jaguars released Bortles. As his successor, Nick Foles was signed by the Philadelphia Eagles for four years and $ 88 million. However, Foles injured himself on the first day of the 2019 season , after which the rookie Gardner Minshew took over. In the middle of the season Foles took over again, but was given back in favor of the rookie quarterback after a few games. In terms of sport, the Jaguars had a good start, but after a bad second half of the season - they were the first team to lose five games in a row since 1986, more than 17 points behind - with six wins and ten defeats, they clearly missed the play-offs. Still, the Jaguars stuck to both their head coach and their general manager. After the season, the Jaguars separated again from Foles, whom they exchanged for the Chicago Bears .

TIAA Bank Field

When the Jaguars were founded, they played in the newly built Jacksonville Municipal Stadium. After Alltel had acquired the naming rights for ten years in 1997, the name was changed to Alltel Stadium . After the naming rights expired, the stadium was renamed back to Jacksonville Municipal Stadium for the 2007 season . On July 26, 2010 it was announced that EverBank had secured the naming rights for five years. After the takeover of EverBank by TIAA , the stadium has been called TIAA Bank Field since 2018 .

Since 2013, the Jaguars have played an annual home game at Wembley Stadium as part of the NFL International Series . Training takes place at the Florida Blue Health & Wellness Practice Fields near the TIAA Bank Field.

The TIAA Bank Field, which was built for $ 144.5 million, is worth $ 139 million. TIAA Bank Field has a capacity of 67,246 spectators. TIAA Bank Field plays on artificial turf, while at Wembley Stadium they play on a mix of artificial and natural turf.

The attendance at home games is between 90 and 95 percent and thus in the lower mid-range of the NFL. The lowest occupancy was in the 2009 season , when only 73.9 percent of tickets were sold, the second lowest value in the NFL.

A golden jumping jaguar was presented as the first Jacksonville Jaguar logo. However, Ford Motor Company , then parent company of Jaguar Cars , believed the logo was too similar to that of the automaker and filed a lawsuit against the franchise. Both parties agreed out of court that the Jaguars would develop a new logo and Jaguar Cars would become a vehicle partner.

The new logo showed the head of a hissing jaguar with a bluish-green tongue. During the first game of the Jaguars, the fans were given lollipops , which colored the tongue bluish-green. In 2009 Weaver announced that he wanted to clean up the Jaguars' branding. This included the waiver of the logo with the body of the jaguar, the logo with a jaguar paw and two logos with curved font.

In February 2013, franchise owner Shahid Khan changed the branding, a new logo, a new word mark and a new secondary logo were introduced. The new logo continued to show a jaguar head, but the design is meant to be more realistic and terrifying. The new secondary logo features the jaguar head with the word Jags above it, which was the first official use of the nickname. The two logos are designed in the shape of a shield in tribute to the Jacksonville military community.

For the 25th anniversary, the Jaguars introduced a new logo in 2019 . It shows a turquoise sign with the number 25 behind the silhouette of the Jacksonville skyline.

uniform

In most seasons, the Jaguars use an advantage at home games that the majority of teams that play in the subtropics use : They wear white jerseys for home games in the first half of the season, so that the opponents are forced to wear dark uniforms , which is what the warm fall temperatures in Jacksonville brings a benefit. The only exceptions were the 2004 season and the 2009 through 2011 seasons, when the Jaguars decided to wear teal home uniforms. Since preseason games take place in the evening, the Jaguars usually play in a blue-green uniform at these home games, as the color of the jersey has hardly any influence on the perception of temperature in the evening.

1994

The day after the NFL awarded Jacksonville an expansion team , Wayne Weaver presented the Jaguars 'first uniform, which featured a silver helmet and green-blue jerseys, at the NFL franchise owners' meeting. The team colors were blue-green, gold and silver. Since the design was based on the logo shown on the jersey and helmet, a new design was necessary after the agreement with Ford.

1995-2001

After changing the logo , newly designed uniforms were presented. The Jaguars opted for black helmets, white trousers with aquamarine, black and gold stripes and gold numbers with a black border. The home shirt was blue-green with white numbers, the away shirt was white with blue-green numbers. Both jerseys had a black collar. A creeping jaguar replaced the old logo on both sleeves. Minor modifications were made over time; so the font was changed and two sleeve strips were added.

2002-2008

The 2007 black uniform

In 2002 the Jaguars introduced new black alternative jerseys and also a black alternative short, which was worn with all three jerseys. The pants had two blue-green vertical stripes on each side. The Jaguars decided to use more black color on their jerseys in 2004. Before, the white away jerseys had a green-blue font, which was bordered in black and gold, after the changes a black font with a blue-green and gold border. Changes have also been made to the black trousers, for example the stripes on both sides have been replaced by the Jaguar logo. The teal color disappeared almost entirely from the uniforms.

The stripes on the white pants were changed in 2008 so that the middle stripe was the thickest and black, while the thinner stripes were blue-green. In 2008, the uniforms' golden hue was replaced by beige .

2009-2011

Uniform from 2009

For the 2009 season, the Jaguars changed the design of the uniform. Owner Wayne Weaver wanted to "clean up" because he felt there were too many different designs. The new uniforms were presented at a press conference on April 22, 2009.

It was announced there that in future all home games will be played in the blue-green jersey and white shorts. The white jerseys were worn with black trousers at away games. In addition, the jaguar was removed from the jerseys and the font was changed again. The word mark was added under the NFL logo, which all teams must wear on the chest, and two stripes on each side, which, starting from the collar, stretch across the chest to the back. The stripes on the home jerseys were black and white, and on the away jerseys they were black and blue-green. Gold was only used by the Jaguars in the logo on the helmet, to which the biggest change was made. The helmet and the facemask remained black, but when light hit it at a certain angle, they sparkled in a blue-green hue. This effect was also built into the logo and any stickers. They were the first helmets in the NFL whose colors were dependent on the angle of the incident light.

2012

Before the start of the 2012 season, the Jaguars' new owner Shahid Khan announced he would introduce black jerseys, a color that was last used in 2008. In September of the same year, the Jaguars chose black jerseys and pants as their home uniform and the teal uniform as an alternative uniform.

2013-2017

The white uniform from 2014

On April 23, 2013, the Jaguars presented the new uniforms designed by Nike . The home shirt is black with white numerals in teal and gold outlined. The away shirt is outlined in white with blue-green lettering in black and gold. It was the first time since 2003 that the team used teal numbers on their away kits. The alternative jerseys are blue-green with black lettering, which are bordered with white and gold. This is the first time the Jaguars have used black font. All three jerseys have a contrasting stripe around the neck opening and semi-glossy stripes on the shoulders, which are supposed to resemble scratches. The logo is placed above the heart on all jerseys.

The helmet has a shiny gold on the back, which changes to a black matt in the middle of the helmet. It is the first helmet in NFL history to have such a design. The pants for the away uniform are white, for the home and alternative uniform black pants are provided. A patch of the team logo is attached to the hip of all pants and a three-colored side stripe is attached to the left and right.

ESPN called the jerseys in 2013 and 2015 the ugliest in US professional sport, which was due in particular to the helmet design.

Since 2018

On April 19, 2018, the Jaguars presented their new uniforms. The helmet was now black, with the primary logo on both sides. The primary jersey was a black jersey with a blue-green collar and sleeve ends, for the alternative jersey both colors were swapped. The white jersey is one color. The jersey numbers are white for the primary and alternative jerseys, and black for the white jersey. The font of the numbers has been redesigned and there is no border. All jerseys can be worn with black trousers, the white and blue-green also with trousers of the same color. The socks are black at the top, white at the bottom and are separated in color by a blue-green curved stripe, a novelty in the NFL.

Pride of the Jaguars

The Pride of the Jaguars (German: Pride of the Jaguars ) is a special honor with which the players, coaches and officials of the Jacksonville Jaguars are honored who have made a special contribution to the team. The name was taken through a public vote in July 2006, with Pride of the Jaguars getting the most votes with 36 percent.

Finances

Team value (in millions of US dollars)
2012: Price at the last change of ownership.
2002ff: According to Forbes estimates, until 2016.

In the 2018 season, Forbes estimates the franchise posted revenue of approximately $ 391 million in September 2018, of which $ 59 million was from entrance fees. In the 2017 season, they generated $ 255 million through television contracts. Pre- tax operating income is estimated at $ 63 million in 2018. Player salaries have an annual expense of $ 226 million.

The average ticket price for a game at TIAA Bank Field when purchased directly is $ 65. This is below the NFL average. Usually all tickets are sold out long before the start of the season, which is why many tickets are sold on Ebay or on the black market , where they change hands in 2010 for an average of 125% of the original price.

The Jacksonville Jaguars were valued at $ 2.08 billion in September 2018, according to Forbes Magazine estimates . This makes them the twenty-fifth most valuable team in the NFL. Thus, since the purchase of Shahid Khan in 2012 for 770 million, a nominal increase in value of 270.1% took place. In 2018, the estimated value of the Jaguars increased by around 0.25% compared to the previous year.

Sponsorship

The Jacksonville Jaguars have five main sponsors: Publix , Baptist Health , Anheuser-Busch , TIAA Bank , and Verizon . TIAA Bank is doing name sponsoring by TIAA Bank acquiring the naming rights to the stadium. Publix, Baptist Healt, Verizon and Anheuser-Busch sponsor the Jaguars through exclusive contracts. Only food and soft drinks from Publix and beer from Anheuser-Busch can be purchased in the Jaguars' stadium . Verizon is responsible for the entertainment technology in the stadium, such as the stadium WiFi , as well as the website and the official app of the Jaguars. Baptist Health is responsible for health care in the stadium. Baptist Health employees can purchase tickets to the Jaguars' home games at a discounted rate.

Fans and outside perception

Cheerleading

The cheerleaders for the Jacksonville Jaguars aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt

The Jacksonville Jaguars cheerleaders are the Jacksonville Roar . The Roars appear at every Jaguars game and present themselves at various events during the off-season .

A year after Jacksonville won a new NFL franchise, the Jaguars announced the creation of a cheerleading team. Delores Weaver , wife of the first owner of the Jaguars Wayne Weaver , had a special interest in the cheerleaders. She got involved in the selection of the cheerleaders, helped with the design of the uniform and examined the dance routines.

The selection process takes place every spring and the members from the previous year who do not participate again are replaced. Applicants are selected after a personal interview and the performance of dance interludes. The final roster will be selected after three downsizing in stages. Most of the members are students, but there are also part-time workers. The cheerleaders train several times a week throughout the year, with the exception of March, when the selection process takes place. The cheerleaders are paid per game participation based on experience, but newcomers earn less than 100 US dollars per game.

mascot

Jaxson de Ville in November 2007.

Jaxson de Ville is the mascot of the Jacksonville Jaguars. The name Jaxson comes from the slang term for Jacksonville, "Jax". He is an anthropomorphic , yellow, bruised jaguar . He wears sunglasses, a jaguar jersey, long trousers and dark sneakers . On the back of the jersey is the name “Jaxson” above his number, “00”, while the front has a paw print. However, clothing adapted to the situation is also worn, for example a military uniform if he is brought into the field in a military jeep. Jaxson enters the stadium in a number of ways, including climbing a rope down the scoreboard. In recent years, Jaxson's methods of entering the stadium have become more and more risky, such as bungee jumping or using a zip line from one of the stadium's floodlights. On December 16, 2009, during such an action, he got stuck with only one leg on a zip line and could only be freed after three minutes. The actor was unharmed. The mascot usually travels on a motorized scooter, but occasionally drives a golf cart as well .

Jaxson is known for escapades. He interacts with the fans, the players of the Jaguars and sometimes with the players of the opposing team. If other mascots are present, he will mock and joke with them. After increasing criticism, this led to changes in the NFL rulebook in 1998, which forced him to calm down. However, Jaxson did not adhere to it: After a game on October 22, 2007 against Indianapolis, Colts President Bill Polian complained to the NFL and Jaxson was reprimanded. On November 18, 2007, Jaxson spent a large portion of it in an improvised cage during a home game and was only let out for short periods a few times to interact with fans and ride his scooter.

Jaxson takes part in various events in and around Jacksonville, but also in NFL and other mascot events, such as the Mascot Congress in New York in 2002. His first appearance was on August 18, 1996 and was portrayed by Curtis Dvorak until his resignation in June 2015. This was criticized after it during a game of Jaguars against the Pittsburgh Steelers , in line with the frequent use of Steeler fans Terrible Towels , a towel with the words "towels transmit Ebola " ( "Towels carry Ebola") held up.

public relation

The Jacksonville Jaguars Foundation was established in 1994. Since then, the foundation has spent over $ 20 million on projects in the greater Jacksonville area. The foundation supports many initiatives such as tobacco control programs, NFL Play 60 and provides veterans support .

The first head coach of the Jaguars, Tom Coughlin , founded the Tom Coughlin Jay Fund Foundation in 1996, which cares for and financially supports young cancer patients and their families. The foundation remained in Jacksonville after Coughlin joined the New York Giants .

Rivalries

The Jacksonville Jaguars have three main rivals: the three division competitors Tennessee Titans , Indianapolis Colts and Houston Texans . Its geographic rivals are the same state-based Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers . There is also a rivalry with the second expansion team from 1995, the Carolina Panthers . The rivalries from the AFC Central era still exist, with the Pittsburgh Steelers in particular being more of a rivalry.
