Matt Klein enters his 14th season with the Green Bay Packers. Named football administration coordinator by Head Coach Mike McCarthy in January 2006, Klein, 36, previously served as assistant director of football administration. He originally joined the Packers as administrative assistant/football in 1999, when he first worked with McCarthy, who was then serving as the team’s quarterbacks coach.
Responsible for coordinating all facets of the team’s daily operations, including the coaching staff’s schedule, Klein serves as a point of communication in administering every Packers practice and team function, including offseason mini-camps, organized team activities and the annual training camp. Additionally, Klein serves as the coaching staff’s liaison on all matters relating to the athletic training, equipment, public relations and video departments.
Klein also arranges team travel for the club’s away games; his duties include coordinating air and ground transportation and securing hotel accommodations for the team, coaching staff and traveling support-staff members. In 2010, he served as part of a group of team staffers that helped plan the arrangements needed to move the organization’s operations to North Texas for the week leading up to Super Bowl XLV.
Born Aug. 29, 1976, in Clintonville, Wis., Klein spent five seasons working with Barry Alvarez’s football staff at the University of Wisconsin. He contributed to a program that earned berths in four bowls, including a victory in the Rose Bowl after the ’98 season.
Klein left school early to accept a position with the Packers in 1999. He completed his coursework at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay and earned his bachelor’s degree in marketing, with a minor in economics.
Klein and his wife, Leah, live in Green Bay with their two sons, Nathan, 10, and Owen, 7.
A friend of fellow Wisconsin native Matt Kenseth, a top-ranked Sprint Cup competitor, Klein enjoys closely following NASCAR. He also devotes much of his spare time to reading and spending time with his family.
