BATON ROUGE – LSU has reached into the NFL to fill two vacant positions on its coaching staff as Jake Peetz has been named the Tigers' offensive coordinator, while DJ Mangas will serve as the passing game coordinator, head coach Ed Orgeron announced on Wednesday.
Peetz and Mangas both come to LSU after serving on the staff of the Carolina Panthers. Peetz, who has 10 years of NFL experience, served as Carolina's quarterbacks coach in 2020, while Mangas was an offensive assistant to former LSU coach Joe Brady on the Panthers staff.
"Both Jake and DJ come highly recommended from one of the premier and innovative offensive coaches in the game in Joe Brady," Orgeron said.
