The Green Bay Packers are coming off a surprising 2023 season that saw them win a Wild Card game over the Dallas Cowboys and almost shock the world by defeating the San Francisco 49ers.

That success is still not stopping the team from making some changes.

 

On Wednesday morning, it was reported that the Packers decided that Joe Barry will not return as the Packers defensive coordinator next season, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

Barry spent three years in the job between 2021 and 2023 and this past season saw the team finish in the top 10 for scoring in 2023. By DVOA, the Packers ranked 27th on defense in 2023, 25th in 2022, and 12th in 2021.


In Jordan Love’s first year as a starter, the team managed to be one of the final eight remaining teams alive after advancing to the divisional round of the playoffs.

The team will certainly look to build on that success going into next season and solidify themselves as a true Super Bowl contender so Matt LaFleur’s next coaching decision looms big.
