The Jaguars will interview Titans assistant coach Chris Harris and Titans defensive coordinator Shane Bowen for their defensive coordinator opening, Ben Arthur of Fox reports.
They are at least the sixth and seventh assistant coaches the Jaguars have requested permission to interview.

Bowen spent three seasons as the Titans’ defensive coordinator after three seasons as outside linebackers coach. He also has worked for the Texans as a defensive assistant.
