GREEN BAY — Add finding a new tight ends coach to Matt LaFleur’s coaching staff to-do list.
As expected, the Green Bay Packers coach lost another member of his original 2019 coaching staff on Wednesday when tight ends coach Justin Outten joined ex-Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett’s staff in Denver as the Broncos’ new offensive coordinator. The Broncos announced Outten’s hiring Wednesday afternoon.
It was clear Hackett, hired last week as the Broncos' coach, wanted someone with extensive experience in the Packers’ system that he and LaFleur created and refined over the past three seasons. Hackett’s initial target for the offensive coordinator job was Packers offensive line coach Adam Stenavich.
