Chase Coffman is a TE for the Atlanta Falcons. He is the son of Packer Hall of Fame TE Paul Coffman.

This concludes this thread, as no other son of a Packer player has played in the NFL.

Are you forgetting about Lavvie and Anthony Dilweg?? How about David and Charlie Whitehurst?

Grandpa Lavvie, Grandpa. Thank you for playing.

One point for Whitehurst.

Actually, there is much I forgot. Twenty Packers have had sons in the NFL, two of those sons also played for the Packers. Can you name the two father-son Packers? Sure, I knew you could.


I didn't ask this question, but there 11 Packers who had dad's in the NFL, but not on Packers, including:
Matt Brock DE 1989-1994
Rich Moran – G, C – 1985-1993
Dave McCloughan DB 1992
Santana Dotson DT 1992-95
Matt Hasselback QB 1999-2000
Eric Metcalfe – RB, WR 2002
Clay Matthew LB – 2009-present

Here are some of the 20 Packers with NFL sons:

Hank Bullough G – 1955, 1958
Joe Alma-Francis QB 1958-1959
Jerry Kramer G – 1958-1968
Howie Williams DB - 1962-63
Richard Moore DT – 1969-1970
David Whitehurst QB – 1977-83
Paul Coffman TE – 1978-1985
Terry Jones DT – 1978-1984
Mark Ingram WR 1995
Keith Jackson TE 1995-1996

This is fascinating shit, no?

Can nobody name the two father-son Packer pairs? Tragic.

Whups, excuse the clerical error. The actual 2nd packer pair:

Jim Flanigan
LB – 1967-1970
DT – 2001

Iron Mike & mraynrand will receive Packer Trivia Championship rings for their correct answers.
As Contest Manager, I too will receive a ring, and the jewels will be real in mine.

The only active player from a Packer family is Chase Coffman.
