GREEN BAY — Jordan Love’s new position coach is the same guy who was his first position coach:
Luke Getsy.
Green Bay Packers’ head coach Matt LaFleur turned to Getsy as the team’s new quarterbacks coach on Wednesday, nearly a year to the day that he brought Getsy back to Green Bay for his third coaching stint with the team.
NFL Network was first to report the news that Getsy would be taking over for departed QBs coach Sean Mannion, who left late last month to become the Philadelphia Eagles new offensive coordinator. A source confirmed that LaFleur was going with Getsy, who served as a senior offensive assistant to LaFleur in 2025.
“Getsy’s a guy who’s in the quarterback room with us every day. He’s done a great job just helping out,” Love said in the days leading up to the Packers’ season-ending NFC wild card playoff loss to the Chicago Bears. “He helps Matt out a lot with game planning and things like that. I’ve got a lot of love for Getsy; he was my quarterback coach my first couple years here in the league. We’ve got a great relationship.”
Getsy got his start with the Packers in 2014 as an offensive quality control coach for then-head coach Mike McCarthy, who promoted him to wide receivers coach in 2016.
Getsy left after the 2017 season to become the offensive coordinator at Mississippi State, but he returned in 2019 as quarterbacks coach when LaFleur was hired as head coach. He held that job for three seasons, including in 2020, when Love was a rookie first-round draft pick, and Aaron Rodgers won the third of his fourth NFL MVP awards.
After Rodgers won his fourth MVP in 2021, Getsy was hired as the Bears’ offensive coordinator under then-head coach Matt Eberflus.
Rodgers called Getsy “a close friend and a guy who was a confidante, a lot of long conversations, long after the day had been done, good hang-outs outside the facility” before the first Packers-Bears meeting of the 2022 season and spoke of his relationship with Getsy’s family — his wife Tina and the couple’s four children.
“He’s just a great human being. He’s a great father, husband, phenomenal coach,” Rodgers said. “He’s fun in the room. He was younger than me, slightly [when he was the quarterbacks coach]. Different stages of life, for sure. But I loved our constant dialogue during the week, loved being coached by him and just kind of watching his development — go from kind of a quality control guy all the way up to offensive coordinator.
“The next stop for him is probably head coach.”
Not quite. Eberflus fired Getsy following the 2023 season, citing the offense’s failure to improve over his two seasons in charge. (A year later, Eberflus fired his replacement, Shane Waldron, at midseason, and Eberflus himself was fired after the season.)
Getsy landed with the Las Vegas Raiders as their offensive coordinator for the 2024 season, but was again fired at midseason. LaFleur brought him on board to consult the Packers’ defense during the second half of the 2024 season, then added him to the staff for the 2025 season.
“I know he’s had a rough go of it the last couple years, but he’s a guy that I have a lot of respect for. Not only as a football coach, but as a man,” LaFleur said at last year’s NFL Meetings.
“I think he does a great job. He’s extremely organized, really smart, [and] I think he sees the game the right way. He’s brought a lot of cool ideas as we went through all our [film] cut-ups and discussed them as a staff. So, he’s going to bring a lot of value to us.”
The Packers still have not officially announced any of their staff additions other than new defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon.
