Jacksonville, Fla. — Tony Boselli is once again a major player for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Team owner Shad Khan announced Monday that Boselli has been named Executive Vice President of Football Operations.
Boselli and head coach Liam Coen will report directly to Khan. And once a new general manager is hired, that person will join Boselli and Cohen as a “football leadership unit”, designed to develop a long-term strategy to create a winning team.

“My passion for this team, these fans and this city has defined my football life, to the point it is now engrained in my family’s legacy,” said Boselli. “Today, that relationship has evolved to include this exciting opportunity, and I find my emotions remarkably similar to what I felt upon being drafted as a Jacksonville Jaguar in 1995. I am so excited and deeply humbled to work with and alongside Shad Khan, the Khan Family, Liam Coen, our new general manager and the entire Jaguars front office. We will come together to build a lasting foundation and winning tradition that Jaguars fans will be proud of.”
Boselli was the franchise’s first-ever draft selection in 1995 and a member of the 2022 class of the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
