The Real Reason Urban Meyer Was Fired By the Jaguars

Brady Quinn: “The thing is the timeline of all this. This [alleged Josh Lambo kicking incident] happened in August, and you’re telling me that at no point in time since then nothing got enough play? This is what happened and I think Shad Khan lied to everyone. I think Shad Khan wanted to fire Urban Meyer after the Ohio incident and the optics of everything, and felt like early on he made a mistake. But you know what he couldn’t do? He couldn’t fire him with cause. This resurfaced again and I wouldn’t be shocked if it wasn’t a hit job from the inside. With all of the stuff that was leaked out by coaches on the staff that I can assure you were leaking stuff, maybe even someone on the front office side with a ‘big title’ if you know what I mean, and I think this is one of those things that got whispered in Shad Khan’s ear, and they said ‘hey, you can get out from underneath this with cause.’ They can fire him and they don’t have to pay whatever is there, or you pay a reduced amount through a settlement. That’s what this was about. At some point, Shad Khan felt like they wanted to move on and they needed to figure a way out, and they realized after the incident in Ohio it wasn’t enough. You weren’t going to be able to fire Urban Meyer with cause then, and now they got a chance to because of this Josh Lambo incident. I didn’t hear the NFLPA make a big focus about it. So outside of this being reported, which happened months ago, we’re now using that as cause to fire the guy? None of this really makes sense in terms of the timeline of when the incident occurred and now the decision that they’re making. Was Shad Khan just completely unaware of this as an owner? Did Josh Lambo just decide to pile on now with everything else that was coming out?” (Full Segment Above)

Listen to former NFL quarterback and now-Fox Sports Radio host Brady Quinn explain why he thinks Urban Meyer fell victim to a coordinated 'hit job' in Jacksonville, as Quinn believes Jaguars owner Shad Khan ‘lied’ about the reasons that led to Meyer’s ousting early Thursday morning.

Check out the video above as Lavar Arrington, a former NFL player turned FSR host as well, and Jonas Knox detail why they believe Meyer was ultimately thrown under the bus in the league’s most dysfunctional franchise.
