It sounds like Ethan Waugh's role as the San Francisco 49ers' vice president of player personnel will be short-lived. He was promoted from director of college scouting and football systems this offseason. According to ESPN's Nick Wagoner, Waugh has an offer from Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke to serve as the team's assistant general manager.

"He is expected to take it after the draft barring any snags, per league source," wrote Wagoner.



2022 would have been Waugh's 18th season with the 49ers. He was expected to oversee the college and pro scouting staff and the department's daily operations.

The below rundown is from Waugh's profile within the team's media guide.


Waugh served as a senior player personnel coordinator for three seasons (2015-17) where he worked with all aspects of player personnel. He also spent three seasons (2012-14) as the team's senior personnel assistant. Waugh spent four seasons (2008-11) as the team's midwest regional scout.

Prior to being promoted to an area scout in 2008, Waugh served as the team's personnel assistant where he was involved in a variety of areas, including the evaluation and scouting of college and professional players and working extensively with the 49ers' scouting database.

Waugh joined the 49ers after spending the previous two seasons at Illinois Wesleyan University, where he served as the offensive coordinator, quarterbacks coach and recruiting coordinator.


Prior to his time at Illinois Wesleyan, Waugh served as an assistant at Western Carolina University from 1997-2001. While with the Catamounts, he coached on both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball and assisted with special teams.
