The Jacksonville Jaguars have hired Tony Boselli as their executive vice president of football operations, the team announced Monday.Boselli, a former All-Pro who holds the distinction of being the first-ever Jaguars draft pick in 1995, has been associated with the franchise in many ways since his retirement in 2001, but now steps into his first front office role.“Few people have better relationships throughout the NFL, know the game, and understand the value of strong team identity and culture as well as Tony Boselli,” Jaguars owner Shad Khan said in a statement announcing the move. “Tony has a wealth of football acumen that we respect and need, and his counsel will be tremendously valuable to me and our football leadership team during this current rebirth and for many seasons to come.”Boselli, who was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2022, has served as a radio analyst and frequent contributor to Jaguars.com reporting, in addition to representing the team as an NFL Legends ambassador.“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,” Boselli said in a statement. “We will come together to build a lasting foundation and winning tradition that Jaguars fans will be proud of.”Boselli’s hiring comes amid several changes in the Jacksonville leadership structure.
