Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a> coach Doug Pederson\u2019s son is the team\u2019s newest tight end.<\/p>\n

The Jaguars signed Josh Pederson on Monday, bringing him aboard nearly a month after he finished the USFL season with the Houston Gamblers. Pederson caught 24 passes for 325 yards in 10 games. The Gamblers terminated his contract last week so he could sign with a then-unnamed NFL team.<\/p>\n

He replaces undrafted rookie Leonard Taylor, who was waived with an injury designation.<\/p>\n

Despite being the coach\u2019s kid, Pederson could have a tough time making Jacksonville\u2019s opening-day roster. The Jags have veteran Evan Engram, who has yet to sign his franchise tender, atop a depth chart that includes second-round draft pick Brenton Strange, 2021 fifth-rounder Luke Farrell and Gerrit Prince.<\/p>\n

Josh Pederson has yet to play an NFL snap<\/a>, but he spent time with San Francisco (2021), New Orleans (2021) and Kansas City (2022) since his four-year college career at Louisiana-Monroe. He caught 99 passes for 1,191 yards and 11 touchdowns with the Warhawks.<\/p>\n

The Pedersons aren\u2019t the first father\/son combination to become coach\/player on the same team in professional sports. Doc and Austin Rivers did it in the NBA<\/a>. Cal Ripken Sr. and Jr. did it in Major League Baseball, along with Felipe and Mois\u00e9s Alou and Dale and Yogi Berra.<\/p>\n

A more recent NFL family tie: The Dallas Cowboys<\/a> drafted Kansas State running back Deuce Vaughn in the sixth round, a move that places Vaughn and his father Chris on the same team. Chris Vaughn is the team’s assistant director of college scouting.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
