Jaguars hire Gus Bradley as coach

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- The Jaguars hired Seattle defensive coordinator Gus Bradley as head coach Thursday, the latest move in the team's rebuilding project.

He joins general manager David Caldwell, who led the coaching search after being hired last week. Bradley will be introduced at a news conference at EverBank Field on Friday.

Meanwhile, Jacksonville has requested permission from the Saints to interview offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael Jr. for its coordinator job, a source told ESPN. New Orleans still wants to re-sign Carmichael Jr., whose contract has expired.

"It was just a matter of time before Gus Bradley became a head coach in the NFL and the Jacksonville Jaguars are extremely fortunate that Gus will be on our sidelines for many years to come," Caldwell said in a statement. "Gus more than met every criteria we insisted on from our new head coach, and his intangibles and leadership abilities are exceptional. Gus is who the Jaguars need now and in the future."
