Urban Meyer became the talk of the town after the Jacksonville Jaguars clinched their AFC South division and made it to the playoffs this season. The head coach struggled in his one and only season with the franchise, as he lasted only 13 games at the helm last campaign.
Now that the Doug Pederson-led Jaguars have made it to the postseason, NFL fans are curious to know more about Meyer's whereabouts since being fired from the team. Following his torrid spell in Jacksonville, Meyer returned to his previous job as a college football analyst for Fox Sports.
The network announced his return in August 2022 and a number of former players were delighted to have him back in the broadcasting booth. However, Meyer's stint in Jacksonville caused a number of unforgettable controversies.

Some of them included the hiring and consequent firing of disgraced strength and conditioning coach Chris Doyle and dancing at a bar with a random woman while he was married to Shelley. Another occasion was when he didn't know who defensive star Aaron Donald was.
What is Urban Meyer's record as an NFL coach?
Meyer entered the NFL in the 2021 season when he signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars. He had previously won three national championships during a 17-season college football career and had a strong foundation before entering the big stage.
However, he holds a disastrous 2-11 record as a head coach in the NFL. He has only been at the helm in Jacksonville and his two wins in the league came against the Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills.
It remains to be seen whether Meyer will attempt to make another comeback in coaching. As things stand, it looks unlikely that the 58-year-old will return to the field as he seems to be enjoying life as an analyst.
