Jeremy Garrett is in his first season as the defensive line coach for the Jacksonville Jaguars after spending the last two seasons coaching defensive line at the collegiate level. Garrett brings over a decade of coaching experience to the team, including two years with the Cleveland Browns, and joins defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen, his former college coach at Ole Miss, in Jacksonville. 

Garrett most recently served as the defensive line coach at Auburn for the 2023 season, coaching defensive tackle Marcus Harris to first-team Associated Press All-SEC and Keldric Faulk to All-SEC Freshman recognitions. Auburn's defense finished seventh in the SEC in sacks in 2023. 

Before Auburn, Garrett coached one of the most productive defensive fronts in college football in 2022 as Liberty led the country in tackles for loss and ranked third in sacks. Under Garrett's guidance, standout defensive end Durrell Johnson led the nation with 22.5 tackles for loss and added 8.0 sacks en route to being named to the Ted Henricks Award Watch List.

Garrett came to Liberty in 2022 after spending the previous two seasons as the assistant defensive line coach for the Cleveland Browns (2020-21). Garrett joined the Browns in 2020 and helped the run defense finish ninth in the league after finishing 30th the previous season. He helped defensive end Myles Garrett earn first team All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors. Along with defensive end Olivier Vernon, the Browns were one of just four teams to have a pair of teammates each record at least 9.0 sacks in 2020.

The Browns finished the 2021 season fifth in the NFL in total defense, marking just the third time since 1970 the team ranked in the top-five and the club's highest finish since 1987. Myles Garrett again earned first team All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors after setting the franchise single-season record with 16.0 sacks in 2021.

Garrett got his coaching start at the collegiate level in 2019 when he spent one season at Vanderbilt as a defensive quality control assistant. He worked closely with Vanderbilt's defensive line in his one season with the Commodores.  Prior to his time at Vanderbilt, Garrett spent eight years at Ensworth High School in Nashville, Tennessee (2011-18). At Ensworth, Garrett served in a variety of roles that included associate director of admissions, assistant track and field coach, assistant defensive football coach, fitness department chair and head football coach. During his one season as head football coach, the Tigers finished the 2018 season with a 7-5 record and advanced to the Division II-AAA quarterfinals.  Garrett got his coaching start in 2010 as an assistant coach at Southaven High School in Southhaven, Mississippi.

Garrett was a four-year letterwinner at Ole Miss (2004-07), where Jaguars defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen served as his defensive line coach.  He earned All-SEC Academic team honors and was the Ole Miss Lifter of the Year and Chucky Mullins Courage Award winner. He graduated with a business degree from Ole Miss in 2007 and an MBA from Harding University in 2010.

Garrett is a native of Senatobia, Mississippi.
