Jets Part Ways With Offensive Coordinator Mike LaFleur
2 years agoThe New York Jets and offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur mutually agreed to part ways on Wednesday, according to sources. The Jets didn't show any statistical improvement under the 36-year-old, who was one of the first to join head coach Robert Saleh's coaching staff in 2021. He was also responsible for the regression of second-year quarterback Zach Wilson in 2022. In addition to a new offensive coordinator, Saleh said he "definitely" wants to hire a senior offensive assistant, with former Houston Texans and Denver Broncos head coach Gary Kubiak rumored as a possibility. The Jets didn't score a touchdown in the final three games, the longest drought since 2010. LaFleur's offense ranked 29th in scoring and 25th in total yards in 2022 after ranking 28th and 26th in those categories in 2021, respectively.
