ESPN Packers reporter Rob Demovsky joins Jen, Gabe & Chewy to give a clear, insider breakdown of the Jonathan Gannon hire, why the Packers moved fast, and how Matt LaFleur is reshaping his coaching staff in a pivotal offseason. 012662 Rob on JGCThe segment opens with Demovsky answering the biggest question Packers fans have been asking since the news broke:Was Jonathan Gannon the Packers’ top choice — or did they rush and settle?Rob explains that Gannon was going to be a defensive coordinator somewhere, and Green Bay believed they could not wait any longer without risking losing him to another team.
