Steelers Byron Leftwich — Nov. 18, 2012 - Pittsburgh, PENNSYLVANNIA, U.S - November 18th, 2012 - Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Byron Leftwich (4) on the sidelines during the fourth quarter as the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Baltimore Ravens at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, PA

The Jacksonville Jaguars fired head coach Urban Meyer last week following a disappointing 2-11 start. Odds have already been released for who Jacksonville’s next head coach may be, and the list does feature on surprising name.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has the ninth-best odds to be the Jaguars’ next at 25/1, courtesy of BetOnline. Tomlin has been the Steelers’ head coach since 2007, and owns a 151-84-2 record. He led Pittsburgh to a win in Super Bowl XXXVII. He has famously never had a losing season in Pittsburgh, but currently has the Steelers sitting at 7-6-1.

Former Jaguars quarterback and current Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich is currently the favorite at 4/1. Leftwich is followed by Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who is 5/1. Current Jaguars offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell is 11/2.
