Special teams were a season-long dilemma for the Green Bay Packers. The third phase eventually cost the team when it mattered most in their season-ending playoff loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
Currently, most people are calling for the firing of special teams coordinator Maurice Drayton. As an in-house hire after the firing of Shawn Mennenga, Drayton struggled to solve any of the issues left behind by his predecessor. In fact, it got worse.
According to Rick Gosselin’s special team rankings, the Packers finished dead last in 2021. The previous year, they were 29th.
