GREEN BAY, Wis. -- No one involved with the Green Bay Packers' defense -- player or coach -- has been around the team longer than Jerry Montgomery. In his nine seasons as an assistant coach, Montgomery has seen a few teams that could stop the run.
In 2016, when Montgomery's title was defensive front assistant, the Packers ranked eighth in the NFL against the run. In 2020 and 2021, when he served as defensive line coach, the Packers ranked 13th and 11th, respectively, against the run.
He knows what good run defenses look like.
