The Green Bay Packers appear to have selected the successor

to Mike McCarthy. In a bit of a surprise Tramon Williams Color Rush Jersey , it is not Josh McDaniels. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the team has selected Matt LaFleur as the next head coach. Schefter reports that the team has begun telling other interviewees that their decision is made and that they should continue pursuing other options. The hire is reportedly imminent, though not yet official.LaFleur was one of the candidates that the Packers interviewed this weekend - on Sunday, to be exact. He has just one year of playcalling experience, holding those duties in 2018 as the Titans' offensive coordinator after holding the same title but not calling plays for the 2017 Los Angeles Rams. APC discussed his experience in more detail in a post last week https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Marcedes-Lewis-Jersey , which you can find here.LaFleur will surely work closely with Aaron Rodgers this season, as he has made waves for his work with quarterbacks in the past. He was the QBs coach for the Atlanta Falcons in 2016, when Matt Ryan won the MVP award en route to the Super Bowl. He also helped develop Kirk cousins in Washington and was instrumental in Jared Goff's turnaround in Los Angeles last season.LaFleur will have say over his coaching staff in Green Bay. However, an ESPN source indicated that he would like to keep defensive coordinator Mike Pettine on for next season. With Pettine still under contract, that is certainly still an option.Stay tuned as more details come out about this developing story. Last season https://www.thepackersfanshop.com , when the Packers relieved long-time head coach Mike McCarthy of his duties, we all knew that further wholesale changes to the coaching staff were inevitable. But that doesn’t change the shock, elation, or — in some cases — the bittersweet feelings that present themselves when push finally comes to shove. Matt LaFleur, presumably with input from Brian Gutekunst and Mark Murphy (aka the Wonder Twins) Green Bay Packers Customized Jerseys , has begun to assemble his staff in earnest. With that, the pod crew has assembled to discuss our feelings about long-time coaches relieved, the select few retained, and the new-to-us names added to the crew. Most notably, the Packers have hired former Jacksonville Jaguars OC Nathanial Hackett to fill their vacancy at non-play-calling offensive coordinator. How do you feel about the Hackett hiring? What about the decision to move on from beloved OL coach James Campen Green Bay Packers T-Shirts , or respected defensive coach Joe Whitt Jr?
