The news comes shortly after ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that LaFleur and the Jets were parting ways after his two seasons as offensive coordinator. He joined the staff in New York after working with Jets coach Robert Saleh during his time with the 49ers. There, LaFleur worked as San Francisco's passing coordinator from 2017-2020 under head coach Kyle Shanahan.
Connor Hughes of SNYreported the Jets were planning to bring LaFleur back for next season, but decided to let him pursue other opportunities after several other teams reached out to gauge his availability.
