"Any uncertainty around Matt LaFleur's future as the Green Bay Packers head coach is not likely to go on for long. LaFleur, whose team blew an 18-point lead and lost in Saturday's NFC wild-card playoff game at the Chicago Bears, said he expects to meet with team president Ed Policy either late Sunday night or Monday. "We talked briefly on the plane, and there's gonna be time when we're gonna get together either later tonight or tomorrow sometime," LaFleur said Sunday."
"LaFleur is under contract through the upcoming season, but Policy said last June upon taking over the team that he would prefer not to have a lame-duck coach. LaFleur would not say whether he would be willing to coach out the final year of his contract if the Packers did not offer him an extension. "Again, that's not my focus right now," he said. "Those conversations will be had in a very short period of time.""
Matt LaFleur expects to meet with Packers president Ed Policy either late Sunday night or Monday to address his future after Green Bay's wild-card loss in Chicago. LaFleur remains under contract through the upcoming season, while Policy previously said he would prefer not to have a lame-duck coach. LaFleur declined to commit to coaching the final year without an extension and said conversations about his status will occur in a short period. The Packers went 76-40-1 under LaFleur with six playoff appearances in seven seasons but have not reached a conference championship since 2020. LaFleur has focused on players, staff and dissecting the loss.
