FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- After a season marked by profound struggles on offense and the regression of quarterback Zach Wilson, the New York Jets and offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur parted ways.
The speculation about LaFleur's job status had prompted teams to inquire about his availability and the Jets allowed him to pursue those opportunities. The search for a replacement begins Thursday.
"He's going to be fine," Jets coach Robert Saleh said Thursday.
The move came as no surprise, as the Jets showed no statistical improvement under LaFleur, 36, one of the first to join Saleh's staff in 2021.
