Report: Packers firing special teams coordinator Maurice Drayton

GREEN BAY, Wis. — After having one of the lowest-ranked special teams units in the league in 2021 and several special teams gaffes leading to an early exit in the playoffs, the Green Bay Packers are reportedly letting special teams coordinator Maurice Drayton go.

The decision not to bring Drayton back for a second season was first reported by Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.

The team has not yet confirmed the hire, but head coach Matt LaFleur expressed frustration with the special teams unit throughout the season and during his postseason press conference.
