According to Packersnews.com, head coach Matt LaFleur will likely hold an interview with Frank Pollack, who served as the Cincinnati Bengals’ offensive line coach last season.Pollack is searching for a new job following the Bengals’ firing of Marvin Lewis. Interestingly, Bengals players and fans appeared to think very highly of Pollack — starting running back Joe Mixon among them. In a since-deleted tweet, Mixon said the following:Meanwhile, Josh Kirkendall of Cincy Jungle noted that the Bengals’ rushing success skyrocketed in 2018 Ty Summers Jersey 2019 , thanks at least in part to Pollack’s arrival. Cincinnati ran for just 3.6 yards per attempt in 2017, but that number increased to 4.7 this fall.In addition to those numbers, one statistical metric found Pollack to be a top-five offensive line coach in the NFL. Justis Mosqueda looked at the sacks and tackles for loss in the run game allowed by a coach’s lines over his career, relative to the league average, summing them up. As of the writing of his article in early December, that analysis put Pollack as the league’s fifth-best O-line coach, among those employed in that role at that time. When looking at Pollack’s history prior to going to Cincinnati, it’s clear to see why his numbers are so good and why teams (and players) would view him in high regard. He coached the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive line from 2013 to 2017 Color Rush Ty Summers Jersey , serving as assistant OL coach for his first two years before earning a promotion in 2015. While in Dallas, he helped a group of highly-drafted talent achieve their potential by becoming one of the league’s best lines. Pollack’s first stint as the primary offensive line coach came in 2012 with the Oakland Raiders, and before that he worked for the Houston Texans, where he and LaFleur worked together under Gary Kubiak.The Packers are also scheduled to interview 49ers assistant OL coach Adam Stenavich for this position, with additional interviews possible in the coming days. Perhaps Green Bay Packers fans just needed a little patience to understand the answers to one of the puzzling questions about the team’s roster in 2018.When the Packers signed Bashaud Breeland to a free agent contract on September 26th, it was assumed that he would be a great veteran addition to a cornerback group teeming with youth and athleticism but light on experience. Sure, Tramon Williams came in to lead the group of youngsters, but with three top options having a combined nine games of NFL experience entering the year Cheap Ty Summers Jersey , a steady hand would be a big help.Besides — Kevin King was banged up again, leaving opportunities for Breeland on the perimeter.Breeland did not suit up for the Packers’ 22-0 win over the Buffalo Bills four days after his signing, but that was no surprise; he was picking up a new defensive scheme after being in Washington for the first four years of his career, and he had been on the free agent market for six months. But his absences over the next three games were much more surprising, even as a hamstring injury limited his ability to practice.But perhaps there is another reason for Breeland sitting out on gamedays, even as Alexander missed some time in that stretch. It’s a possibility that APC’s Matub mentioned in the writer’s chat on Tuesday morning, prior to the flurry of trade activity at the deadline: perhaps the Packers have moved Breeland to safety with the expectation that he would take over when Ha Ha Clinton-Dix got moved at the trade deadline.A look at Breeland’s athletic profile finds him as a player whose movement skills are probably better suited to that position than to playing corner. His testing results from the 2014 NFL Combine show a player who is not particularly fast (4.62 40) and is in the bottom quarter of cornerbacks in his agility drills (7.04-second 3-cone and 4.33-second short shuttle). Those numbers still aren’t exceptional for a safety, but they’re better at that position than at corner Ty Summers Jersey Womens , where elite short-area quickness is more critical.In addition, Breeland’s size (5-foot-11-3/8 and 195 pounds) would fit in just fine at safety — that puts him about a quarter-inch taller and the same weight as Jermaine Whitehead.Furthermore, this idea is something that is beginning to get traction with the Packers’ beat writers as well. ESPN’s Rob Demovsky mentioned this move as a possibility in a piece published on Wednesday morning, while Tom Silverstein of Packersnews.com quoted an NFC scout as saying that it would actually be the team’s best option moving forward: Perhaps this is an ace in the hole that Mike Pettine and Mike McCarthy have been holding for a few weeks, biding their time until Brian Gutekunst was able to deal Clinton-Dix away and free up the spot in the lineup for Breeland. It could very well be a different wrinkle to put on the field when the Packers suit up against the New England Patriots on Sunday, one that Bill Belichick and company might not expect.Or maybe this line of thinking is entirely off-base, and the hamstring injury plus the return of all of the team’s corners after the bye week really were the reasons for Breeland being inactive these past four games. Maybe the team thinks that Whitehead, Tramon Williams Ty Summers Green Bay Packers Jersey , Josh Jones, or some combination thereof will end up being their best option at free safety. Packers fans should find out by Sunday night at the latest which of these possibilities is the real answer.
