The Green Bay Packers have been one of the NFL’s best offensive teams for what feels like the last three decades, especially when you consider who the head coaches and starting quarterbacks have been.
But whoever has been in the offensive coordinator role has meant just as much to the team, and most recently, the man in that chair has been none other than Adam Stenavich.
Adam Stenavich’s Days with the Packers Are Numbered
Stenavich, a former Packers offensive lineman himself back in 2006, was hired by Packers head coach Matt LaFleur in 2019 as the team’s offensive line coach.
Since then, the Packers have had no trouble winning games in the regular season and producing one of the best overall offensive units in the league.
Stenavich would later get promoted to the role of offensive coordinator in 2022, which was Aaron Rodgers’ final season with the franchise.
But in the six seasons that Stenavich has been with the franchise, the Packers have won 10+ games four times and made the postseason five times.
He has been incredibly consistent as a play-designer (Packers finished the 2024 regular season ranked fifth in total offense).
All of that to say, the chances of him getting a head coaching job in the future are somewhat high, especially because he started to get interviews earlier this offseason.

The Packers Should Not Worry About Potentially Losing Adam Stenavich
Assistants from teams are often hired to become head coaches in sports, which is the way it is supposed to work.
Losing a top assistant would be nothing new for Matt LaFleur, who lost former Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett in 2022 when he then became the head coach of the Denver Broncos.
Once a top assistant is lost for a team, the most likely scenario that would take place is for that team to promote from within, especially because the next assistant likely knows the type of offense or defense that wants to be run.
Packers fans should feel good about whomever LaFleur has in mind to potentially take up the mantle of offensive coordinator if and when Stenavich becomes a head coach somewhere.
