GREEN BAY \u2014 Jordan Love\u2019s new position coach is the same guy who was his first position coach:<\/p>\n
Luke Getsy.<\/p>\n
Green Bay Packers\u2019 head coach Matt LaFleur turned to Getsy as the team\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
\u201cGetsy\u2019s a guy who\u2019s in the quarterback room with us every day. He\u2019s done a great job just helping out,\u201d Love said in the days leading up to the Packers\u2019 season-ending NFC wild card playoff loss to the Chicago Bears. \u201cHe helps Matt out a lot with game planning and things like that. I\u2019ve got a lot of love for Getsy; he was my quarterback coach my first couple years here in the league. We\u2019ve got a great relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
After Rodgers won his fourth MVP in 2021, Getsy was hired as the Bears\u2019 offensive coordinator under then-head coach Matt Eberflus.<\/p>\n
Rodgers called Getsy \u201ca 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\u201d before the first Packers-Bears meeting of the 2022 season and spoke of his relationship with Getsy\u2019s family \u2014 his wife Tina and the couple\u2019s four children.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s just a great human being. He\u2019s a great father, husband, phenomenal coach,\u201d Rodgers said. \u201cHe\u2019s 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 \u2014 go from kind of a quality control guy all the way up to offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe next stop for him is probably head coach.\u201d<\/p>\n
Not quite. Eberflus fired Getsy following the 2023 season, citing the offense\u2019s 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.)<\/p>\n
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\u2019 defense during the second half of the 2024 season, then added him to the staff for the 2025 season.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know he\u2019s had a rough go of it the last couple years, but he\u2019s a guy that I have a lot of respect for. Not only as a football coach, but as a man,\u201d LaFleur said at last year\u2019s NFL Meetings<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI think he does a great job. He\u2019s extremely organized, really smart, [and] I think he sees the game the right way. He\u2019s brought a lot of cool ideas as we went through all our [film] cut-ups and discussed them as a staff. So, he\u2019s going to bring a lot of value to us.\u201d<\/p>\n
