Coaching profile at Pro Football Reference

Douglas Charles Marrone (born July 25, 1964) is an American professional football coach and former offensive tackle. He is currently the offensive line coach for the New England Patriots of the National Football League (NFL). He played in the NFL for the Miami Dolphins and New Orleans Saints. He came to prominence as the head coach at Syracuse from 2009 to 2012, where he previously played college football. Marrone also served as the head coach of the NFL's Buffalo Bills from 2013 to 2014 and Jacksonville Jaguars from 2016 to 2020.

Marrone won the Pinstripe Bowl twice with Syracuse, which led to him being hired as the Bills' head coach. Marrone helped the Bills obtain their first winning record for a decade during the 2014 season, but he opted-out of his contract the same year. Joining the Jaguars in 2015 as an assistant coach, Marrone was named interim head coach near the end of the 2016 season and officially became head coach for 2017. His 2017 campaign was his most successful, leading the Jaguars to their first playoff appearance since 2007 and their first division title since 1999 en route to an AFC Championship Game appearance. However, Marrone's subsequent seasons saw the team finish at the bottom of their division, and he was fired in 2020 after a franchise-worst 1–15 record. Marrone returned to college football before being hired by the Saints in 2022.
