At the NFL Scouting Combine, Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur confirmed that Aaron Rodgers played a “significant role” in the team hiring Tom Clements to replace Luke Getsy as quarterbacks coach.
LaFleur wouldn’t comment on what impact Clements’ arrival would have on Rodgers returning to Green Bay in 2022, but he did outline the process of hiring Clements and said the veteran coach will be good for any player in the Packers quarterback room.
For starters, Rodgers’ consistent praising of Clements over the last three years helped motivate LaFleur’s interest in pursuing the former Packers assistant to return.
