Packers coach on torn Achilles: “We’re all going to face a little bit of adversity”

But he already knows how to turn an injury report into an object lesson.

Via Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Packers coach turned his own blown Achilles from a basketball game last week into something with a moral.

“We’re all going to face a little bit of adversity,” LaFleur said. “You can’t let it hold us back. So that’s just kind of like my mindset, you know? It is what it is and you make the best out of whatever situation comes.”

LaFleur is having surgery today, and will be coaching from a cart through the rest of OTAs and minicamp.
