LaFleur may now need to fight to keep his employment<\/span>.<\/p>\n

This is despite leading the franchise to the NFL playoffs for the third season in a row.<\/p>\n

NFL Insider Jay Glazer, 56, has argued that LaFleur is under growing pressure.<\/p>\n

Glazer placed the Packers coach in the \u201ctime will tell\u201d list when discussing potential head coach firings on Fox NFL Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re talking about Matt LaFleur<\/span> also,\u201d Glazer\u00a0said on the Fox show. \u201cWhy\u2019s he on the board?<\/p>\n

\u201cMatt LaFleur\u2019s job security has been questioned weekly at his press conferences. Which would be crazy to move on from a guy like that, but he\u2019s there.\u201c<\/p>\n

Coach LaFleur\u2019s position with the Packers has been questioned throughout the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

But he has guided the franchise to the playoffs yet again with a second-placed finish in the NFC North.<\/p>\n

The Packers have claimed nine wins, seven losses, and one tie this year.<\/p>\n

This has secured their status as the last Wild Card franchise.<\/p>\n

But they must now advance if LaFleur is to avoid mounting pressure.<\/p>\n

The head coach faced significant calls to be fired following the Packers\u2019 postseason exit last year.<\/p>\n

They were knocked out by eventual Super Bowl LIX winners the Philadelphia Eagles.<\/p>\n

There has already been significant movement among rival franchises during the NFL\u2019s Black Monday.<\/p>\n
