Matt LaFleur Welcomes Brother Mike and the Cardinals for Joint Practice
Matt LaFleur joked he might fight his brother Mike as NFL joint practices have seen repeated scuffles this month, officials said.
- On Wednesday, Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur and his brother, Arizona Cardinals head coach Mike LaFleur, will hold a joint practice in Green Bay, marking the first time the siblings coach against each other.
- Arizona hired the 39-year-old Mike this offseason, creating this unusual sibling showdown. The brothers, separated by 7 years, previously competed while Mike served as an assistant for the Rams and 49ers.
- Amid recent $500,000 NFL fines for practice brawls, Matt joked he and Mike would "throw down on the 50" if fights erupt Wednesday, though both coaches emphasize the trust inherent in their relationship.
- Parents Denny and Kristi LaFleur plan to attend the festivities, where Matt joked they might resemble "Christmas trees" while wearing Packers green and Cardinals red.
- The teams meet Friday for a preseason finale at Lambeau Field following the joint sessions. Matt continues preparing his squad for the September 13 regular-season opener against the Minnesota Vikings, now less than three weeks away.
