Background
The Green Bay Packers named Cam Achord special teams coordinator on Feb. 27, 2026. (AY-cord) Achord comes to the Packers with 10 years of experience coaching special teams in the NFL, including four seasons as a coordinator. Over the past two seasons he served as assistant special teams coach with the New York Giants (2024-25). Last season he helped coach a unit that returned 70 kickoffs for a single-season franchise-record 1,942 yards (27.7 avg.), surpassing the previous record of 1,688 yards set in 1964. The Giants' 27.7 kickoff return average was the second-highest mark in a single season in franchise history and ranked No. 5 among all NFL teams in 2025. In 2024, the Giants had two players earn NFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors. Isaiah Simmons was named the Week 5 recipient after he blocked Seattle's Jason Myers 47-yard game-tying field goal attempt that Bryce-Ford Wheaton caught and returned it 60 yards for the clinching touchdown. Ihmir Smith-Marsette was the second Giant to earn the honor after he returned a kickoff 100 yards for a TD in Week 17.
