Jeff Hafley, an American football coach, currently serves as the head football coach at Boston College since 2020.

Born and raised in Montvale, New Jersey, Jeff honed in football as a wide receiver at Siena College, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in history in 2001.

He continued his education, obtaining a master’s degree from the University at Albany, SUNY, in 2003.

After his playing career, he tried his luck in coaching and spent time at various colleges like Worcester Polytechnic, Albany, Pittsburgh, and Rutgers.

In 2012 he had the chance to coach the NFL team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, followed by stints with the Cleveland Browns and the San Francisco 49ers.

Eventually, Hafley landed as the co-defensive coordinator at Ohio State, earning recognition as a top recruiter before securing the head coach position at Boston College in December 2019.

On January 31, 2024, he was hired by the Green Bay Packers as their defensive coordinator.

The coach’s wife, Gina, appears to be a private person and prefers to keep a low profile. In fact, even the head coach himself has made his account private.

Originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, there is not much information available about Gina’s life before her marriage to Jeff Hafley.

However, it is known that she used to work at Emily Ley as a Marketing Director.

Her responsibilities at the company have evolved over time to match the changes in her life.

During her time at Emily, she managed Annual Fundraising and Events for her alma mater, the University of Pittsburgh.

It is unclear whether she is still involved with the team or not.

Despite this uncertainty, what is known is that Gina is a devoted mother to her children and a loving wife.

Married Life And Kids

Gina and Jeff’s love story began at the University of Pittsburgh, where Jeff was invited to speak as a guest.

It is believed that the spark between them was immediate, and they eventually tied the knot in a private ceremony whose date was unknown to the public.

However, it is suspected that they exchanged vows around 2012,  as Gina once shared a glimpse of them in their wedding outfits on her Facebook account. 

Their first child, a daughter named Hope, was born in 2015. Now at the age of eight, she is a bright and lovely young girl.

Three years later, they welcomed their second daughter, Leah, who is currently a playful and curious five-year-old.

Despite Jeff’s hectic schedule, he always makes sure to prioritize his family and loves spending time with them. Gina and her kids also often visit him at his workplace, where they support him and his team.
