New York Jets hire former Packers OC Nathaniel Hackett

The last few years have been turbulent for Nathaniel Hackett. Now after a rough first stint as an NFL head coach, he’s back with another team as offensive coordinator, the position he held in Green Bay from 2019 through 2021.

The New York Jets have reportedly hired Hackett on to become their new offensive coordinator, filling the vacancy created by the team’s firing of Mike LaFleur. Of course, LaFleur is the brother of Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, who hired Hackett in 2019 as the offensive coordinator on his initial staff. Hackett’s tenure in Green Bay saw the team win 13 games each season and the offense finish in the top ten in points and yards twice each, with quarterback Aaron Rodgers earning NFL MVP honors in both 2020 and 2021.
