Entering his 10th season as a coach in the NFL, Adam Stenavich begins his eighth year coaching with the Packers and his fifth season as offensive coordinator after being promoted in 2022. Stenavich (STEN-uh-vitch) originally joined the team as offensive line coach in 2019 and then was promoted to offensive line/run game coordinator in 2021. Stenavich came to Green Bay after spending two seasons as the assistant offensive line coach for the San Francisco 49ers (2017-2018). Prior to that, he spent six years in the college ranks, including stints as the offensive line coach at San Jose State (2015-16) and Northern Arizona (2014).
Since joining Green Bay's staff in 2019, Stenavich has helped guide the Packers to top-10 league rankings in giveaways (No. 1, 109), sacks allowed (No. 1, 203), time of possession (No. 3, 31:05), yards per play (No. 6, 5.8), yards per game (No. 9, 355.1), scoring (No. 8, 25.1 ppg), rushing yards per game (No. 10, 122.8), third-down percentage (No. 4, 43.4) and red-zone efficiency (No. 8, 60.3), the only team in the league to rank in the top 10 in all nine of those categories over that span. He was part of a staff that helped the Packers to their sixth playoff berth in seven seasons in 2025, including Green Bay teams in 2024 (weighted age of 25.72) and 2023 (25.58) that were the two youngest NFL teams to make the postseason to that point dating back to 1980.
Stenavich helped the Packers rank tied for No. 6 in the NFL last season in explosive plays (128) and tied for No. 7 in sacks allowed (29). Green Bay ranked No. 3 in the league in giveaways (13), tied for the second-best single-season mark in team history, and tied a franchise mark with only six fumbles lost on the season. QB Jordan Love ranked No. 6 in the league with a career-high 101.2 passer rating and posted a careerbest TD/INT ratio of 3.83 (23 TDs, six INTs), also good for No. 6 in the NFL.
In 2024, Stenavich helped guide the Packers to top-five rankings in sacks allowed (No. 2, 22), total offense (No. 5, 370.8 ypg), rushing offense (No. 5, 146.8 ypg) and yards per play (No. 5, 6.14), one of only two teams in the NFL (Baltimore) to accomplish that feat in 2024 and the Packers' first time doing so since 2003. Green Bay finished with 2,496 rushing yards, the second most in team history, and 6,303 total yards, the fourth most in a season in franchise annals. The Packers posted 460 points (No. 5 in team history) and ranked No. 4 in the NFL in both explosive plays (136) and explosive runs (55), with the explosive-run total the top mark by Green Bay over the past 25 seasons and the explosive-play total the second-best mark over that span. RB Josh Jacobs earned Pro Bowl recognition in his first season with the Packers after posting a team-high 1,329 rushing yards and a career-best 15 TDs on 301 carries (4.4 avg.), the most rushing yards and rushing TDs by a Packer in his first season with the team.
In 2023, Stenavich worked with Love in his first year as a starter as he became just the third QB in NFL history to post 4,000-plus passing yards (4,159) and 32-plus passing TDs (32) in his first season with multiple starts, joining Kurt Warner (1999) and Patrick Mahomes (2018). Love was one of only four QBs (Dak Prescott, Brock Purdy, Baker Mayfield) to rank in the top 10 in the league in passing TDs (No. 2), passing yards (No. 7) and TD/INT ratio (No. 7, 2.91) in 2023.
For the first time in the history of the franchise, Green Bay's offense featured four rookies with 30-plus receptions in 2023 (WR Jayden Reed, 64; WR Dontayvion Wicks, 39; TE Luke Musgrave, 34; TE Tucker Kraft, 31), the first NFL team to accomplish that feat since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. The Packers' rookies accounted for 191 receptions and 2,250 receiving yards in 2023, the most in both categories by an NFL team's rookie class dating back to 1970. The Packers ranked No. 3 in the NFL in 2023 in sacks allowed (30), tied for No. 6 in giveaways (18) and No. 5 in third-down percentage (47.1), joining the 49ers as the only two clubs to finish in the top five in all three categories.
In his first season as offensive coordinator in 2022, Stenavich helped guide the Packers to a No. 7 ranking in the NFL in sacks allowed (32), including just 17 in Weeks 7-18, which was tied for the third fewest in the league over that span. Green Bay ranked No. 5 in the NFL in time of possession (31:23), its fourth straight season finishing in the top five in the category. RB Aaron Jones led the team with 1,121 rushing yards and ranked No. 2 in the NFL among RBs with an average of 5.26 yards per carry.
Despite being without five-time All-Pro T David Bakhtiari (knee) for all but one game in 2021, Stenavich's line helped Green Bay rank in the top 10 in the league in passing offense (No. 8, 253.8 ypg), total offense (No. 10, 365.6 ypg), scoring (No. 10, 26.5 ppg), giveaways (t-No. 1, 13) and time of possession (No. 1, 32:43). The Packers allowed one or fewer sacks in seven games on the season, tied for No. 8 in the NFL, despite using seven different starting combinations on the line due to injuries. The line protected QB Aaron Rodgers as he threw 38 TD passes with just four INTs for a league-leading 111.9 passer rating on his way to being named the NFL's Most Valuable Player by The Associated Press for the second straight season.
In 2020, Stenavich coached a line that helped the Packers rank No. 1 in the NFL in scoring (31.9 ppg), giveaways (teamrecord 11) and time of possession (32:29), tied for No. 2 in sacks allowed (21), No. 5 in total offense (389.0 ypg) and No. 3 in yards per play (6.29). Green Bay allowed one sack/zero sacks in a league-high 13 games in 2020, tied for the most in a season in team history (2004), as Rodgers threw a franchise-record 48 TD passes and just five INTs for a 121.5 passer rating. The line helped pave the way for Jones to set a single-season franchise mark for yards per carry (league-best 5.49) among players with 200-plus attempts, surpassing FB Jim Taylor's mark of 5.42 yards per carry in 1962. Bakhtiari and C Corey Linsley both earned first-team AP All-Pro honors, while Bakhtiari and G/T Elgton Jenkins were both named to the Pro Bowl roster. Bakhtiari received All-Pro recognition for the fifth consecutive season, while his Pro Bowl selection marked the third of his career. Jenkins became just the third Packers offensive lineman (Charley Brock, 1940; Deral Teteak, 1952) to make the Pro Bowl within his first two seasons.
In 2019, Stenavich helped guide Bakhtiari to second-team AP All-Pro honors and his second Pro Bowl selection (first as an original selection). Stenavich's line helped the offense to a No. 2 ranking in the league in giveaways with 13 and a leaguebest nine zero-giveaway games. The line blocked for Jones, who led the team with 1,084 yards rushing and a career-best 16 rushing TDs, which was tied for the most in the NFL in 2019 and was the second most in team history behind only Taylor (19 in 1962). Stenavich also tutored Jenkins, who became only the second Packers guard to be selected to the PFWA All-Rookie team since 1974 (Daryn Colledge, 2006).
In 2018, Stenavich helped coach a San Francisco offensive line that cleared the way for second-year RB Matt Breida to rush for 814 yards and three TDs on 153 carries, an average of 5.32 yards per carry that ranked No. 4 in the NFL. His rushing average was good for No. 3 in franchise history among players with 150-plus attempts in a season, trailing only FB Joe Perry (6.06 in 1954) and RB Frank Gore (5.43 in 2006). As a team, the 49ers posted 60 runs of 10-plus yards on the season, good for No. 9 in the league.
San Francisco's line also provided time for its quarterbacks to throw for 4,247 yards in 2018, the most by the club since 2000 (4,400 yards). Combined with San Francisco's 4,235 passing yards in 2017, it marked the first time that the 49ers registered back-to-back 4,200-yard passing seasons since 1993-95. The line helped protect QB Nick Mullens in '18, who threw for 2,277 yards in his first eight career games (Weeks 9-10, 12-17), the fourth most in the league by a QB since the merger. Despite losing starting QB Jimmy Garoppolo to a season-ending knee injury in Week 3, the 49ers would go on to rank No. 13 in the league in rushing offense and No. 15 in passing offense, one of only eight NFL teams to finish in the top half of the league in both categories in 2018.
In his first season on San Francisco's staff in 2017, Stenavich helped tutor a line that contributed to the 49ers averaging 349.2 yards per game, good for No. 12 in the NFL, including an average of 245.3 passing yards per game (No. 9 in the league). San Francisco racked up 3,925 net passing yards, the most by the team since 2000 (4,239). The 49ers came on strong in the second half of the season, ranking No. 2 in the league with an average of 400.3 total yards per game in Weeks 10-17 as the club won six of its final seven games.
Stenavich helped coach T Joe Staley, who earned Pro Bowl recognition in 2017. Staley and the line cleared the way for the offense to register runs of 10-plus yards on 13.0 percent of its carries in '17, which ranked No. 5 in the league. RB Carlos Hyde led the team with 938 yards and eight TDs on 240 attempts (3.9 avg.), with Breida adding 465 yards and two TDs on 105 carries (4.4 avg.).
Prior to joining the 49ers, Stenavich spent two seasons (2015-16) coaching the offensive line at San Jose State. In 2015, his line helped clear the way for the offense to rush for 2,378 yards and 24 TDs with 2,882 passing yards and 21 TDs to become just the second team in school history to register 2,000-plus rushing yards/20-plus rushing TDs and 2,000-plus passing yards/20-plus passing TDs in a season (1976). T Wes Schweitzer earned second-team All-Mountain West Conference honors and was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the sixth round (No. 195 overall) of the 2016 NFL Draft. Another one of Stenavich's linemen, T Nate Velichko, earned honorable mention All-Mountain West recognition in '15 after spending the previous season at right guard.
Stenavich joined San Jose State after spending the 2014 season as the offensive line coach at Northern Arizona. His line helped the Lumberjacks rank No. 16 in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) in passing offense (272.5 ypg) and No. 34 in total offense (419.5 ypg). NAU's line cleared the way for three different backs to register 100-yard rushing games on the season, with a pair of linemen earning All-Big Sky Conference honors (T Joe Gurski, second team; G Eric Rodriguez, third team).
Stenavich began his coaching career in 2011 at his alma mater, the University of Michigan, as a strength and conditioning intern. He then served as an offensive graduate assistant for the Wolverines for two seasons (2012-13). A left tackle at Michigan (2002-05), Stenavich earned first-team All-Big Ten honors in both of his final two seasons, also taking home the Hugh R. Rader Jr. Award as Michigan's top offensive lineman as a senior in 2005.
Following his collegiate career, Stenavich signed with the Carolina Panthers as an undrafted free agent in May 2006, but was released by the team in the final roster reduction. He was signed to Green Bay's practice squad in November 2006 and spent the final six weeks of the season with the Packers. In the spring of 2007, he was allocated to the Amsterdam Admirals of NFL Europa by the Packers and went to training camp with Green Bay that season. Stenavich was with the Dallas Cowboys in training camp in 2008 and then was on the Houston Texans' practice squad in 2008-09.
Born March 11, 1983, in Marshfield, Wis., Stenavich earned first-team all-state honors as a senior at Marshfield High School. He and his wife, Katie, have two daughters, Hadley and Maggie, and two sons, Tim and Joseph.
