The Jacksonville Jaguars fired defensive coordinator Bob Babich, the team announced Tuesday.
The move comes hours after general manager Dave Caldwell said to expect changes on defense.
Babich, who became defensive coordinator when coach Gus Bradley took over Jacksonville in 2013, led one of the worst defenses in the NFL each of the past three seasons:
2015: 31st in scoring (28.0); 24th in total yards (375.0)
2014: 26th in scoring (25.8); 26th in total yards (370.8)
2013: 28th in scoring (28.1); 27th in total yards (379. 4)

On Tuesday, the Colts have fired defensive coordinator Greg Manusky, per a source.
Manusky joined the staff when Pagano was hired in in 2012. The former pro linebacker previously spent time as defensive coordinator with the San Diego Chargers and San Francisco 49ers.
Pagano hinted Monday night on NFL Network changes to the staff could be coming.
"We've had a bunch of discussions, like I said, and we've got a lot of things like everybody else that's done playing," Pagano said. "There are teams obviously that are still in preparation (mode); the teams that made the playoffs, obviously. But everybody else is still in the evaluation mode now, and we're going to roll up our shirtsleeves and go to work. And, again, everything we do is based on two things: What's best for this team and what gives us the best chance to win."
