Green Bay Packers’ defensive coaching staff has undergone a number of changes recently. The Packers won’t have Joe Barry (defensive coordinator), Jerry Montgomery (defensive line coach), or Greg Williams (passing game coordinator) next season.
The team is reportedly moving on from yet another defensive coach this off-season who has already joined the Seattle Seahawks.
Former Green Bay Packers Coach Immediately Signs On With The Seattle Seahawks
As previously highlighted by Wisconsin Sports Heroics:
According to Tom Silverstein:
As new DC Jeff Hafley builds his staff, two #Packers defensive assistants who will not return are passing game coordinator Greg Williams and inside linebackers coach Kirk Olivadotti a source said.
Olivadotti will join the staff of new #Seahawks coach Mike McDonald.
The Packers have had Olivadotti as their linebackers coach since 2019. He will now join Mike Macdonald’s staff in Seattle in the same position. Between 2011 and 2013, they coached together at Georgia under Mark Richt.
Packers Fans React To Olivadotti Joining The Seattle Seahawks
When Packers fans saw one of their former coaches joining an NFC Rival, they certainly had something to say:
thankful for their service to the team but I like bringing in new blood
