Lance Fernandez lists the offensive coordinators for all 32 teams this 2024 NFL season, with experience from previous head-coaching stints to assistant coaching.
Being an NFL offensive coordinator is a rare opportunity because only 32 are employed at any given season. With that massive responsibility comes a direct impact on the team’s success. Likewise, their sound tactics can help quarterbacks, skill position players, and offensive linemen become Pro Bowlers or All-Pros.
The journey to becoming an offensive coordinator varies. Some get promoted after handling a minor coaching role while others are former NFL head coaches looking to help another team. Regardless of their paths, the best-performing offensive coordinators could land NFL or college football head coaching jobs.
Therefore, here are the coordinators tasked to diagram plays that could lead to points. Several will take on the offensive coordinator position for new teams this season.

New England Patriots – Alex Van Pelt
#Patriots OC Alex Van Pelt on Javon Baker:

— The Coachspeak Index (@CoachspeakIndex) June 5, 2024
Van Pelt was the Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator until he got the pink slip after their disappointing AFC Wild Card Round loss to the Houston Texans last season. He transfers to Foxborough to do the same job under new head coach Jerod Mayo.
New York Jets – Nathaniel Hackett
"I think the world of him. He's one of the best people I've ever met. Our sense of humor is the same...we're very lucky to have that. It's something that I'll cherish for the rest of my life."

He was the Denver Broncos head coach before joining the Jets as offensive coordinator last year. Hackett stays in the role even if the team’s postseason drought continues.

Offensive Coordinators for AFC North Teams
Baltimore Ravens – Todd Monken
Now that Todd Monken is in Year 2 as OC and has had time to evaluate last season, I asked him what identity he wants the #Ravens offense to have: “Certainly, you want to have an offense that’s a nightmare to defend.” #RavensFlock pic.twitter.com/RBih8yAoHS
— Carita Parks (@CaritaCParks) August 13, 2024

— BIG SARGE MEDIA LLC (@BigSargeSportz) August 15, 2024
Bobby Slowik's success with the Texans last year made him a head coaching candidate this offseason. Instead, he will be in charge of Houston’s dynamic offense for another season. Slowik was with the 49ers before joining the Texans. While he’s now in charge of Houston’s offensive strategy, he started his coaching career on defense.
