Packers' Hiring Tom Clements as QBs Coach Likely a Tactic to Entice Aaron Rodgers to Stay

The only time that Aaron Rodgers hoisted the Lombardi Trophy in triumph, the Green Bay Packers' quarterbacks coach was Tom Clements. The Packers won it all with Clements coaching Rodgers and it would appear the team has designs on duplicating that history.

Over the weekend, Green Bay hired Clements to take over QBs coach duties, the same position he held in Title Town from 2006-11 before then-head coach Mike McCarthy promoted him to offensive coordinator. Clements served in that coordinator role for the next three seasons before being promoted to assistant head coach.

Clements left Green Bay in 2016 and went on to enjoy a trio of years out of the NFL before being hired by the Arizona Cardinals as passing game coordinator and QBs coach in 2019.
