The Green Bay Packers are undergoing significant changes to their coaching staff ahead of the 2026 NFL season. Head coach Matt LaFleur has extended his contract, but several key positions will see new faces, including defensive coordinator, quarterbacks coach, and wide receivers coach. The team is bringing in experienced coaches like Jonathan Gannon and Luke Getsy while also promoting from within, aiming to build on their recent success.
Why it matters
The Packers have been a consistent playoff contender in recent years, and maintaining continuity on the coaching staff is crucial for their continued success. These changes will shape the team's offensive and defensive schemes, player development, and overall direction as they look to compete for a championship.
The details
The most notable change is at defensive coordinator, where Jeff Hafley is departing to become the new head coach of the Miami Dolphins. He will be replaced by Jonathan Gannon, the former Eagles defensive coordinator and Cardinals head coach. On offense, Sean Mannion is leaving his role as quarterbacks coach to become the offensive coordinator for the Eagles, with Luke Getsy returning to that position after serving as a senior analyst in 2025. The Packers are also bringing in Noah Pauley as the new wide receivers coach, replacing Ryan Mahaffey who followed Mannion to Philadelphia.
