Hackett, who has been on the Packers staff since 2019, has also interview for head coaching jobs in Jacksonville, Minnesota, and Chicago. Denver is seen as a potential landing spot for Aaron Rodgers, should he or the Packers decide to part ways in the offseason. Hackett and Rodgers are very close, which only fuels speculation that Denver is interested in both of them.
