How do the Green Bay Packers’ coaching changes impact head coach Mike McCarthy?

Welcome to the Packers News Report.

It’s the biggest day of the football calendar. The Pro Bowl is here. Wait, you mean the Pro Bowl isn’t important?

Joking aside, if you need a reason to watch the Pro Bowl tonight, and it’s hard to think of many, I can give you a couple. Davante Adams and Mike Daniels. These two will represent the Pack.

If you don’t want to watch the Pro Bowl, why not tune in to see former Packers defensive lineman Dean Muhtadi, now better known as Mojo Rawley, take part in the WWE Royal Rumble. The Packers are represented everywhere tonight.

Let’s dive into Sunday’s Packers News Report.
