Thus, the door was left open for Hackett to climb the ladder elsewhere, and that\u2019s exactly what he did.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">In Arizona, Hackett will serve as their new offensive coordinator under new head coach Mike LaFleur, brother of Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur. Though both teams are entering a rebuild, the move is not a lateral one for Hackett. He will not call the plays in Arizona, but he will have far more control of the offense than he would have in Miami.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Hackett has two decades of NFL and college football experience on both sides of the ball. Last season, he worked for the Green Bay Packers as a defensive analyst, under current Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley. The connection between Hafley and Hackett was a strong reason for his \u201carrival\u201d in Miami, but it was seemingly not strong enough.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The Dolphins will now have to look for a new quarterbacks coach to work under offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Miami Dolphins will need a new quarterbacks coach.
