The 2019 season was the Green Bay Packers' 99th in the National Football League (NFL), their 101st overall and their first under new head coach Matt LaFleur. This for first time since 2008 Clay Matthews was not on the opening day roster who sign with Los Angeles Rams in offseason. After suffering back-to-back losing seasons for the first time since 1990–91 and missing the playoffs in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 2005–06, the Packers improved on their 6–9–1 record from 2018, finishing 13–3 and returning to the playoffs for the first time since 2016. This guaranteed the Packers' first non-losing season since that same year. Green Bay swept the NFC North for the first time since their franchise-best 2011 season, and achieved their best record since that season as well.
The Packers defeated the Seattle Seahawks 28–23 in the Divisional round of the playoffs, and visited the top-seeded San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game, where they lost 37–20.
