Rich Bisaccia is stepping down as the Green Bay Packers’ assistant head coach and special teams coordinator, head coach Matt LaFleur announced Tuesday, leaving the team with an unexpected vacancy on a staff that has largely been set for the 2026 season.
“While we are disappointed to lose a person and coach as valuable as Rich, we respect his decision to step down from the Packers,” LaFleur said in a statement. “Rich was a tremendous resource to me and our entire coaching staff who had a profound impact on our players and our culture throughout the building. We can’t thank him enough for his contributions to our team over the last four years.”
Bisaccia joined Green Bay in February 2022 as special teams coordinator and added the assistant head coach title in March 2023. Over his four seasons, the Packers made significant, measurable progress in the hidden-yardage game, ranking seventh in the NFL in field-position margin during that period, while also developing a return unit that consistently flipped the field.
“After taking some time to reflect over the last few weeks, I have made the decision to step down,” Bisaccia said in a statement. He thanked LaFleur and the organization for their support, adding, “Coaching for the Green Bay Packers was truly an honor, and I will always be grateful for my time here. I look forward to whatever is next for me and my family, and I wish nothing but the best for everyone in the organization.”
The timing puts Green Bay in a position to replace a coach in a role that’s often filled early in the offseason.
