Overview

  • Engstrand has outlined a vision built on speed, physicality, aggression, explosiveness and detailed execution that he wants evident in every game film.
  • He says he is “100 percent confident” in calling plays at the NFL level despite having no prior coordinator experience in the league.
  • Aaron Glenn has granted Engstrand autonomy to tailor the offensive scheme while expecting it to align with his broader team philosophy.
  • Engstrand plans to leverage Justin Fields’ running and passing skills after the quarterback joined on a two-year, $40 million contract in March.
  • He inherits an attack that ranked 24th in yards and points last season under Nathaniel Hackett’s direction and Aaron Rodgers at quarterback.
