Career / Fashion and Style

As of his career, Matt LaFleur began his coaching career as an offensive graduate assistant at his alma mater, Saginaw Valley State, in 2003, at which time he also substitute taught in area high schools, focusing on math. He was then appointed as an offensive assistant by the Houston Texans in 2008.

During his two years there, he worked with wide receivers and quarterbacks and built a good connection with offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. Kyle hired LaFleur to teach the quarterbacks in Washington in 2010. His role as a mentor for young quarterbacks Robert Griffin III and Kirk Cousins during the 2012 season was clear.

In 2014, he returned to collegiate football as the quarterback’s coach at the University of Notre Dame after six years of coaching in the NFL. On February 5, 2015, he returned to the NFL as the Atlanta Falcons’ quarterbacks coach, reporting to offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan.

On February 8, 2017, he joined the Los Angeles Rams coaching staff as offensive coordinator, reporting to head coach Sean McVay. He departed his role with the Rams on January 30, 2018, to assume the same position with the Tennessee Titans. LaFleur’s Titans concluded the season with the NFL’s 27th-best scoring offense.

On January 8, 2019, he was hired as the Green Bay Packers head coach. He broke his Achilles tendon while playing basketball on May 30, 2019. In addition, he guided the Packers to a 2-2 preseason record. He made his regular-season head coaching debut against the Chicago Bears on September 5, 2019 and guided the Packers to a 10-3 victory.

In addition, he became the first Green Bay coach since Vince Lombardi in 1959 to win his debut game versus the Bears. In LaFleur’s first season as a head coach, the Packers went 13-3, making him the first rookie head coach in Packers history to win 10 games, make the playoffs, and win the NFC North (as well as going 6-0 in division play in the process).

Furthermore, the 13 victories were the most by a rookie coach since Jim Harbaugh’s 49ers in 2011. He won his postseason debut against the Seattle Seahawks 28-23 in the divisional round of the playoffs to advance to the NFC Championship Game, where the Packers fell to the top-seeded San Francisco 49ers 37-20.

He led Green Bay to their first postseason berth since the 2016 season as the NFC’s number two seed. Prior to an early Week 5 bye, the Packers started the 2020 season by winning all four games. He lost his first-ever divisional game, a 22-28 home setback to the Minnesota Vikings, after a 5-1 start.

With a 31-24 victory against the Detroit Lions in Week 14, he earned his second consecutive NFC North championship and postseason spot. Green Bay won the NFC’s top seed and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs for the first time since the 2011 season with a 35-16 win against the Chicago Bears in Week 17.

The Packers also finished the season on a six-game winning run, and LaFleur improved his December win-loss record to 9-0. In his first two seasons as coach, he had a 26-6 record, which was tied for the second-best start for a coach.

His club concluded the season as the league’s top offense, scoring 509 points and had quarterback Aaron Rodgers pass for a Packers franchise-record 48 touchdowns. The Packers beat the Rams 32-18 to win their first NFC Championship Game since 2007 when they were defeated 31-26 by the eventual Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. On October 1, 2021, he was admitted into the SVSU Cardinal Athletic Hall of Fame.

LaFleur got married to his girlfriend, BreAnne LaFleur, whom he met in college. They also have been blessed with two boys, Luke LaFleur (born in June 2011) and Ty LaFleur (born in August 2013).
