The Arizona Cardinals have officially hired Mike LaFleur to join their coaching staff, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. LaFleur joins the organization at a critical juncture as the team faces significant questions regarding the quarterback position heading into the offseason.
In a simultaneous move, the Denver Broncos have promoted Davis Webb to the role of offensive coordinator. Webb, a former NFL quarterback who transitioned into coaching, has seen a rapid rise through the professional ranks and will now take over the play-calling or coordinator duties for the Denver offense, per @RapSheet.
The coaching carousel continues to impact the NFC North as well, with reports confirming that the Chicago Bears are now in the market for a new coordinator. These staff changes represent a major shift for all three franchises as they look to stabilize their leadership ahead of the new league year. The news was first reported during Super Bowl Live coverage as teams begin to finalize their coaching rosters.
