Matt LaFleur has been the ​Packers head coach for what feels like an hour and he's already adding by subtracting.





Former Packers special teams coach ​Ron Zook won't be on LaFleur's staff in 2019. Zook has landed on his feet, however, as he has accepted an analyst job with CBS Sports Network.





Well, that's what his new Twitter bio tells us.

​The special teams in ​Green Bay were an abject disaster in 2018. They ranked 22nd in kick return yards and 21st in punt return yards. Only the Chargers allowed more yards on kick returns. In addition, they had a nasty habit of egregious turnovers.

​​Word has it LaFleur has already brought Zook's replacement on board, as Cincinnati Bengals assistant ​Brayden Coombs is rumored to be headed to Green Bay.

At the end of the day, football is a meritocracy.





If your work doesn't consistently produce results, you have to go. ​​Zook's legacy is secure based on his time as a head coach at Illinois and Florida. The Packers had to make a change to that lackluster special teams unit.
