The Green Bay Packers announced promotions for nine different members of Brian Gutekunst’s player personnel staff on Tuesday, following the 2026 NFL draft.
Gutekunst promoted Milt Hendrickson to vice president of player personnel, John Wojciechowski to director of football operations, Richmond Williams to director of player personnel, Lee Gissendaner to director of pro scouting, Matt Malaspina to senior player personnel executive, Pat Moore to director of college scouting, Sam Seale to senior national scout, Luke Benuska to national scout and Mike Owen to assistant director of pro scouting.
The promotions are the necessary reorganization underneath Gutekunst after Jon Eric-Sullivan departed the organization to take over as the Miami Dolphins general manager during the 2026 hiring cycle.
Hendrickson, who is entering his eighth season in Green Bay, is now second in command under Gutekunst, taking over Sullivan’s former title.
Williams appears to be on the fast track to a future general manager job. After spending five years as a college scout, two years as a pro scout and the last five years as director of pro personnel, Williams is now director of player personnel — a title Sullivan held for four seasons before getting his last promotion in Green Bay.
