The Green Bay Packers’ 2025 NFL campaign came to a heartbreaking end after they were knocked out in the Wild Card round by the Chicago Bears.
What made the loss sting even more was that Matt LaFleur’s side, despite being in full control of the game and holding a dominant 21–3 lead, let the game slip away in a 31–27 defeat to the Bears.
While early reports claimed the defeat had put LaFleur’s future in doubt, a fresh update paints a different picture. NFL insider Adam Schefter has revealed that the Packers are now expected to enter talks in the coming days to work out a deal that would keep LaFleur in Green Bay.
LaFleur, who has been in charge of the Wisconsin-based franchise for seven seasons now, has an overall coaching record of 79–46–1 and is currently signed with the franchise through the 2026 season.
