Breaking: New York Jets hire Nathaniel Hackett as new offensive coordinator

The New York Jets just hired Nathaniel Hackett to be their next offensive coordinator.

He takes over a Jets offense that is in the market for a veteran quarterback but one that has some promising young talent.

Hackett is a young coach who just turned 43 years old last month. He has 20 years of coaching experience, with 14 of those years spent in the NFL. Prior to joining the Jets, Hackett has been an offensive coordinator in eight of his 14 years and with three different teams.

His lone year as a head coach this past season was a disaster, as the Denver Broncos were 4-11 under Hackett before firing him.
