GREEN BAY, Wis. – When Matt LaFleur was named Green Bay Packers coach in January 2019, he retained Mike Pettine as his defensive coordinator.
Pettine’s defense was good enough to help the Packers get to NFC Championship Games the past two seasons. He will not get another shot.
A source confirmed the NFL Network report that Pettine will not be retained by LaFleur. As reported by ESPN.com’s Rob Demovsky, Pettine didn’t sign a contract extension after last season, so he was operating under an expiring contract.
With that, a team coming off back-to-back 13-3 seasons will have two new coordinators.
