The results are in!
This week, we asked Jacksonville Jaguars fans who they wanted to see hired as general manager among the team’s five final candidates:
53% of respondents voted for Cunningham and 27% voted for Gladstone, who was ultimately hired as general manager.
“It’s my honor to introduce James Gladstone as the new general manager of the Jacksonville Jaguars,” team owner Shad Khan said in a statement.
“James emerged as my choice, and our choice, following a painstaking but energizing interview process that left nothing to doubt. Every candidate delivered, and I am grateful to them all for their preparation and time spent with us this week in Jacksonville. In the end, we found James to be a class ahead and exceptional in every regard – vision, new ideas, communication, chemistry and a keen understanding of the league and our team, to name a few of many virtues he will bring immediately to the Jaguars. It’s going to be fun watching James work with our football leadership team of Liam Coen, Tony Boselli and Tony Khan, but most of all it will be rewarding. I am confident of that.
“This is also an occasion to thank Jaguars fans everywhere for their support and faith over the years. I know we can count on them to warmly welcome James to Duval while rallying behind our organization and team as we chart a new and promising path forward.”
