After a week of virtual interviews with 10 candidates, the Jacksonville Jaguars announced that they have five finalists for their general manager opening, Paul Bretl of Jaguars Wire reports.

This group includes Bears assistant GM Ian Cunningham, Packers VP of Player Personnel Jon-Eric Sullivan, Jaguars interim GM Ethan Waugh, Rams Director of Scouting James Gladstone, and 49ers Director of Scouting and Football Operations Josh Williams.

The Jaguars also announced that these in-person interviews will begin on Wednesday, February 19th.

The Jaguars’ timeline for naming their next general manager is a short one, with Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports reporting that Jacksonville would like to have this role filled by the end of next week prior to the NFL scouting combine.

Those that interviewed but are not among the finalists include former Titans GM Jon Robinson, Raiders assistant GM Champ Kelly, Chargers assistant GM Chad Alexander, Bills Director of Player Personnel Terrance Gray, Bengals Senior Personnel Executive Trey Brown, and Giants assistant GM Brandon Brown.

The search committee for this job opening includes Shad Khan, Tony Boselli, Liam Coen, and team President Mark Lamping.
