Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports the Packers are finalizing a deal to hire Brian Gutekunst as their new GM.
Gutekunst was set to interview with the Texans for their GM position, but John McClain reports that Gutekunst never interviewed with the team because he accepted the job to remain with Packers.
McClain adds that Gutekunst is “splitting” the GM job with Russ Ball.
According to Adam Schefter, Gutekunst receives a five-year contract from the Packers.
