The Green Bay Packers want to speak with a disciple of Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay about their head coaching vacancy.

According to a Monday report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Packers have requested an interview with Tennesee Titans offensive coordinator Matt LaFleur.

LaFleur, a former college quarterback, worked under Shanahan in Houston, Washington and Atlanta and McVay in Washington and Los Angeles before accepting the offensive coordinator position in Tennessee for the 2018 season.

The 39-year-old coach came up through the ranks as a quarterbacks coach and would provide a new, fresh take on offense for Aaron Rodgers and the Packers.

LaFleur has only two seasons of experience as a coordinator and only one as a playcaller, so the Packers probably want to figure out if he’s ready for the jump to the head role.

The Titans struggled on offense in 2018, finishing 27th in points scored and 25th in yards gained.

LaFleur will reportedly interview with the Packers on Sunday.
