Sean McVay on Packers' hiring of Matt LaFleur: 'He's a great football coach'

There is, however, Matt LaFleur.

For the Packers, this could be the next best thing.

LaFleur became the team's newest head coach on Monday, marking the succession of Mike McCarthy, who was the previous title holder for 13 seasons and helped deliver a championship in 2010.

The 39-year-old LaFleur is tasked with the job of helping Aaron Rodgers -- the Packers' starting quarterback whose age is just four years LaFleur's junior -- rejuvenate his career after an unorthodox 2018 season and reach the top of the mountain for just the second time in his 14-year career.
