Packers Extend LaFleur, Gutekunst Contracts

The Green Bay Packers have extended contracts for coach Matt LaFleur and general manager Brian Gutekunst after a period of uncertainty following their playoff loss to the Bears.

After Ed Policy succeeded Mark Murphy as Packers president and CEO, he made it clear that 2025 would be an up-or-out season for both LaFleur and Gutekunst, who had contracts running through 2026. Policy is not a fan of lame-duck arrangements.

The Packers' playoff appearance as the No. 7 seed in the NFC was enough to secure new contracts for both men. The extensions guarantee at least one more season beyond 2026, complicating any potential firing decisions for 2025. chickenroad.qpon
