The Green Bay Packers are one of the first franchises to know that elite quarterback play is necessary to win a championship. Bart Starr, Brett Favre, and Aaron Rodgers are all examples of that. Jordan Love hopes to be the next name on that list.
As it turns out, there’s a long-time NFL QB who is interested in the job.
“Would Be An Honor” Packers See Long-Time Quarterback Interested In QB Coach (Report)
Generally, head coach Matt LaFleur hires offensive coaches with whom he has a previous relationship. With Tom Clements set to retire as quarterbacks coach, LaFleur must determine who is going to oversee Jordan Love’s development as a young, $220 million quarterback:
Well, one of LaFleur’s former quarterbacks, ESPN’s Dan Orlovsky, just threw his hat in this ring. After someone suggested Orlovksy as a possible candidate on Twitter/X, Orlovsky responded, “Would be an honor,” on Tuesday — the same day it was announced that Clements would be heading into retirement.
LaFleur has previously discussed trying to sign Orlovksy to his coaching staff in the past, which shouldn’t be a shock. The two spent time with each other in 2009 when they were both with the Houston Texans and in 2017 with the Los Angeles Rams, LaFleur’s lone season as the team’s offensive coordinator.
Orlovsky wouldn’t even be the first 2017 Rams quarterback who LaFleur has signed to his staff. At the moment, Sean Mannion, who was also on that roster, is serving as an offensive assistant for the Packers.
Mannion and Luke Getsy, currently a consultant with the team who served as the Packers’ quarterbacks coach from 2019 through 2021 under LaFleur, are both internal candidates who you’d have to assume would be on the shortlist for the job.
Here is a look at Love’s stats in 2024:
