ESPN insider Adam Schefter has named two coaches he expects to lose their jobs following this weekend’s games.
This coming Monday will be the NFL’s “Black Monday” as teams are set to hand marching orders around the league.
Three coaches have already been fired during the season—Robert Saleh, Dennis Allen, and Matt Eberflus—and Schefter reckons another two will join them after Week 18.
The insider appeared on ESPN’s ‘NFL Countdown’ on Sunday morning, where he reviewed a list of coaches and predicted whether they would be fired or spared the axe. According to Schefter, Antonio Pierce, Brian Callahan, Brian Daboll, Mike McCarthy, and Shane Steichen should all be safe, while Jerod Mayo and Doug Pederson are likely on the out.
Adam Schefter Gave Some Background
Mayo is in his first season with the Patriots, having come in as the replacement for Bill Belichick. He has done little to improve their fortunes, with the team 3-13 heading into the final game of the season.
“All along, the Kraft family has wanted to stand by him and give him support. He was the hand-chosen successor to Bill Belichick,” Schefter noted. “But over the last 30 days or so the team has struggled, they’ve lost at home, fans have been angered, they’ve been apathetic, and it feels like within the organization—there’s been a shift.”
On the bright side, they’re holding onto the No. 1 overall pick, which should be a nice welcome present for an incoming coach.
“There’s nervous people inside the building right now. We are gonna go ‘leaning OUT’ right now for Jerod Mayo,” he added.
Pederson, meanwhile, has led the Jaguars to two consecutive 9-8 seasons. He also coached them to the AFC South title and a playoff win two seasons ago. The under-fire head coach is heading into Sunday’s game with a 9-8 record.
“He recognizes that this could be his last game today. It’s no secret. Everybody feels like we’re expecting what’s inevitable in Jacksonville,” Schefter said.

Kylie Kelce has a stern message for all the haters and critics who are upset about her dethroning “The Joe Rogan Experience” as the No. 1 podcast.
On Dec. 5, Kylie Kelce launched her new highly-anticipated “Not Gonna Lie” podcast. Kylie’s husband, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, co-hosts another marquee podcast “New Heights” with brother Travis Kelce.
The Kelce brothers’ podcast is one of the most popular around the world, largely thanks to Travis’ highly-publicized relationship with music star Taylor Swift. Needless to say, it hasn’t taken long for Mrs. Kelce to build a giant audience for her show.
Kylie Kelce’s “Not Gonna Lie” podcast immediately dethroned Joe Rogan’s controversial program as the No. 1 podcast. Naturally, there are a lot of Rogan fans and Kelce critics who aren’t happy about that.
During the latest edition of “Not Gonna Lie”, Mrs. Kelce hilariously clapped back at all the haters and critics after she dethroned “The Joe Rogan Experience” as the top podcast:
“Who the f**k is Kylie Kelce? I can’t get over the fact that you actually typed this into Twitter, when you could have typed it into Google. And also you typed my name, so now you know what you’re gonna get: More Kylie Kelce content…
I had talked to my producers about like, ‘Do we do like a segment on algorithms and explain to people that if you engage with the content and if you write my name and sh*t, you’re just gonna keep getting me on your timeline?”
Regardless of how you feel about her podcast, Kelce spills the truth. If you’re one of the haters googling her name, you’re just setting yourself up to get even more Kylie Kelce content.
Kylie Kelce Is Unfazed By The Haters
Unfortunately, celebrities and people with major platforms like Kelce have to deal with a terrible amount of unfair insults and personal attacks. But Kylie is handling it the best way possible by using the critics to just further motivate her.
