For years, the Green Bay Packers have been unwilling to pay top dollar for assistant coaches. This has been an issue most notably with the team’s special teams coordinators, as Green Bay will have its fourth person in that job in the last five seasons for 2022. The penny-pinching came with a price in 2019, when the Packers failed to woo Darren Rizzi, the most sought-after special teams coach on the market that year, and instead hired Shawn Mennenga before firing him two years later.
However, after firing Maurice Drayton earlier this week, there have been few rumblings about what individuals the Packers are targeting as his replacement.
