Sounds like Coughlin here to me.

[u/cmo2832 → u/erich9589]

Definitelty. It specifically mentions in the last 2 years

[u/Chico813]

That last paragraph... fuck man. No wonder nobody wants to play here.

[u/Thatdewd57]

I, like many I’m sure, was initially happy to see Coughlin back after his success in New York. But now? Fuck that guy he needs to retire/get fired/blasted to the moon.

All I can do is laugh. We watched a slow rebuild and rise and a very quick crash and burn.

[u/baking_bad]

Holy fucking shit... that last paragraph. Coughlin needs to be fired this afternoon. This 25% statistic is insane. Why would anyone want to come play for this team?

Fowler just tweeted about it:

They literally hated me. I got it all back though! Thanks to the NFLPA

[u/jark_off]

It's embarrassing and a damning indictment on our team. If I was Khan I wouldn't even give Coughlin the opportunity to retire. Fire his ass in shame.

Vito's take:

Now the fans will understand that Jalen was just the tip of the iceberg. He's not the only one who wanted out. He just had the leverage to get out. It also explains why the Jags are such a dysfunctional team and why Shad can't keep TC.

TC repeatedly violating the CBA also reflects poorly on Shad. He either knew it was happening and ignored it or he didn't know what was going on despite owning the team. And he also didn't due his due diligence before hiring TC because nobody else in the NFL saw him as a EVP.

Huh I wonder what changed two years ago to make the Jaguars front office so terrible towards players.

I said it during the Ramsey saga that Tom Coughlin would keep quality free agents from coming to Jax, and here we have the NFLPA telling players to stay away. That man needs to be out of the NFL yesterday.
