LaFleur served as the offensive coordinator for New York Jets the past two seasons. Even though the Jets were never ranked higher than 22nd for offensive DVOA, New York was better than eight of their last nine seasons with a -8.3% offensive and -9.6% respectively. LaFleur was also the San Francisco 49ers’ passing game coordinator and wide receivers coach.
