Last week, former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator Luke Getsy was let go as the offensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears. Now, Alex Van Pelt, who was Green Bay’s quarterbacks coach from 2014 to 2017, has been relieved of his offensive coordinator duties with the Cleveland Browns.
Van Pelt’s firing is a bit more surprising than Getsy’s, considering how the Browns’ season went. Not only did Cleveland make the playoffs, but a mid-season signing of quarterback Joe Flacco yielded a 4-1 record and a 90-plus passer rating under Van Pelt.
