The Green Bay Packers desperately needed a win on special teams coming off a stunning playoff loss, and the chance to hire one of the NFL’s best coordinators provided the perfect opportunity.
Coach Matt LaFleur is rightfully excited about having Rich Bisaccia as the new coordinator for the Packers special teams in 2022.
“We’re just really fortunate to have a guy of that caliber,” LaFleur said Wednesday from the NFL Scouting Combine. “I think if you asked the coaches around the league, he’s regarded as one of the best in the business. Any time you can get a guy like that, that’s a big-time win for us. Ultimately, we all have to go out there and perform. But just in terms of the presence he brings, and the experience he brings, and the leadership he brings, it’s really going to benefit us.”
