Packers 2022 Roster Preview: Nowhere to go but up for special teams

It can’t get any worse for the Green Bay Packers on special teams, right?

RIGHT?!

After a historically bad season on special teams, it was only fitting the group ending up sticking the fork in Green Bay’s season with a botched punt in the divisional round against the San Francisco 49ers. While the offense did the team no favors, the defense kept Green Bay ahead for most of the game until the final faux pas on special teams did them in.

Determined to not let history repeat itself, head coach Matt LaFleur sacked coordinator Maurice Drayton and went out and hired former Raiders interim head coach Rich Bisaccia to turn the unit around.
