The Green Bay Packers have named Matt LaFleur the team's 15th head coach. The hiring was announced Tuesday by President and Chief Executive Officer Mark Murphy.

"We are very excited to welcome Matt as the next head coach of the Green Bay Packers," said Murphy. "We found a coach with the background and experience that we think will get us back to playing winning football. We're also excited about the person—he is bright with a great work ethic and a perfect fit for Green Bay and the organization."

"Matt is smart, organized and has a great vision for the path forward for our team," added Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst. "His values and personality fit the culture of our organization. He has a tremendous ability to build relationships on multiple levels, which is a very important aspect in leading a football team."

LaFleur (la-flew-er), 39, will be entering his 11th year coaching in the NFL and his 18th overall in coaching. He brings a wealth of offensive experience, having worked and developed under Mike Shanahan, Gary Kubiak, Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay. LaFleur served as an offensive coordinator for both of the past two seasons (Tennessee Titans, 2018; Los Angeles Rams, 2017) and a quarterbacks coach for the previous seven years (Atlanta Falcons, 2015-16; Notre Dame, 2014; Washington Redskins, 2010-13).
