Fantasy Impact:

After beginning his professional coaching career with the Broncos from 2000-2002 as a special teams assistant, Lynn spent the next 12 years as running backs coach for four different teams -- he coached with the Jaguars (2003-2004), Cowboys (2005-2006), Browns (2007-2008) and Jets (2009-2014). He ventured on to Buffalo in 2015 to become their running backs coach and offensive coordinator until he was named their interim head coach following Week 16's loss to Miami -- after the team relieved Rex Ryan of his head coaching duties. This will be Lynn's first opportunity as a head coach in the league.
