LaFleur's Contract: Green Bay's Season of 'Prove It'
11 Jan
Summary
- Matt LaFleur's contract expires after this season, making it a 'prove it' year.
- LaFleur boasts a strong regular-season record but struggles in the playoffs.
- New team president Ed Policy will decide whether to extend LaFleur's contract.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur's contract status is a major talking point as the team prepares for the playoffs. LaFleur is entering the final year of his contract, and team president Ed Policy is expected to begin extension discussions. This season has been characterized as a 'prove it' year for LaFleur, whose team finished the regular season with a 9-7-1 record.
LaFleur has achieved significant regular-season success, boasting a .654 winning percentage and leading the Packers to the playoffs in six of his seven seasons. He is credited with developing both Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love. However, his postseason record of 3-5, including key losses as a top seed, has drawn criticism. A notable instance was the decision to kick a field goal instead of attempting to tie the game in the 2020 NFC Championship.
