Head coach Matt LaFleur provided some context as to why Reed's numbers tapered off during an interview on Tuesday at the NFL's Annual League Meeting.

LaFleur was Rodgers's head coach from 2019 until the Packers traded him to the New York Jets in 2023. The duo led Green Bay to two NFC Championship Game appearances but the team went 8–9 in their final season together, prompting a split.

Matt LaFleur emphasized the need for the Packers to regain control in the NFC North after failing to win the division since 2021.

Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur didn't seem bothered about Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson's introductory press conference remark that he enjoyed beating him twice a year when he was the Detroit Lions' offensive coordinator.

Johnson discussed how he evolved as the play caller that led the NFL's top-scoring offense and then became Bears head coach.

The day he was introduced as the Bears’ head coach, Johnson said that, "to be quite frank with you, I kind of enjoyed beating Matt LaFleur twice a year."
