Packers name Ed Policy successor to Mark Murphy in 2025

Mark Hoffman/USA TODAY NETWORK
Packers COO & General Counsel ED POLICY “will be the 11th CEO” of the team as the Packers BOD on Monday voted for Policy to "replace" current team Chair, President and CEO MARK MURPHY in July 2025, when Murphy “reaches the mandatory retirement age of 70,” according to Richard Ryman of the GREEN BAY PRESS-GAZETTE. The 53-year-old Policy, who was an SBJ Forty Under 40 HOFer, joined the Packers in 2012 as general counsel. He was promoted to COO, “essentially the No. 2 man in the organization,” in 2018. He has been “responsible” for development of the Packers' Titletown district west of Lambeau Field. Ryman reports Policy “will continue as COO and general counsel until Murphy's retirement.” The team said that a search committee “considered more than 90 prospects, applicants and referrals, with candidates from across the NFL, sports, business and entertainment.” Policy’s father, CARMEN, was president and CEO of the 49ers from 1991-97 and president and minority owner of the Browns from 1998-2004 (GREEN BAY PRESS-GAZETTE, 6/24).
