By the end of the 2023 season, the Green Bay Packers had proven to the NFL that their offense would not lose a beat after dealing away four-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The Packers went 7-3 in their final ten games of the season, including a decisive Wild Card victory over the Dallas Cowboys.
The Packers have added yet another player to their offensive lineup.
The Green Bay Packers Sign an Addition To Offense
Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur has hired Eddie Gordon as his assistant offensive line coach, according to 247 Sports.
Gordon coached the offensive line at UAB in 2023, having previously helped create Georgia’s powerful offensive line.
“We are so lucky to get Eddie Gordon to join our staff here at UAB,” UAB coach and former NFL quarterback Trent Dilfer said last year. “Eddie was important in the formation of two national championship offensive lines. He is widely known in the offensive line community and has played an important role in Georgia’s recent success.
Gordon was a graduate assistant for the Bulldogs’ offensive line from 2019-2021 and a quality control coach in 2022. Georgia won back-to-back titles and was in a New Year’s Six bowl all four seasons, including wins in the 2019 Sugar Bowl and 2020 Peach Bowl. During Georgia’s 29-1 run, they ranked fourth nationally in sacks allowed in 2022 and sixth nationally in 2021.
Gordon played two seasons at Louisiana before entering Georgia (2017-18). In 2017, he was the Ragin’ Cajuns’ offensive line graduate assistant, and in 2018, he was the team’s director of player development and assistant strength coach.
