Byron Leftwich will interview for the head coaching job of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Leftwich is in his third season with the Bucs and head coach Bruce Arians and in his second season working with quarterback Tom Brady. Leftwich also was Arians' offensive coordinator with the Arizona Cardinals in 2018.

The Jaguars requested permission on Dec. 28 to interview Leftwich, but he said he didn't want to talk to the Jaguars because he wanted to concentrate on the upcoming game against the New York Jets. 

The Jaguars drafted Leftwich third overall in 2003 out of Marshall and he ranks fourth in franchise history in passing yards and passing touchdowns.
