Packers CEO Mark Murphy Calls Out Fan's 12th Email Demanding He Retire Before 2025

Green Bay Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy has responded to a fan's call for him to retire.

The fan, Justin M. from Tucson, Arizona, wrote Murphy in an email to convey his dismay at the job Murphy, who has been in his position since 2007, has done with the Packers.

"I am emailing today to express my disappointment and dissatisfaction with the franchise and its direction during your tenure as CEO," the fan wrote. "I believe it is long overdue for you to retire and give control of the organization to someone else who is more properly prepared to take the team into the future. Your leadership has been inept. You do not deserve to lead such a storied franchise. Please disappear into retirement ether. Nobody likes you. You have never been a good executive. I wish you the worst in your twilight years."

Murphy responded in his monthly column on Packers.com (h/t Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio), thanking the fan for his dedication — Murphy claimed he has gotten 11 other emails from Justin M.— and addressing his calls for Murphy's retirement.

"Thanks for sharing your opinion, Justin," Murphy wrote. "I also appreciate the 11 other emails you've recently sent with similar suggestions. I get your point. You will be pleased to know that I am required to retire in July 2025 under our by-laws."

Murphy likely gets emails from fans calling him out all the time, but after receiving 12 from Justin M., he found it was time to respond.

Despite the fans' claim that Murphy has been disappointing as CEO, he has done a relatively good job during his tenure, helping lead the Packers to a Super Bowl in 2010 and plenty of playoff runs. This season, Murphy's squad had a solid playoff appearance despite finishing the year 9-8. Green Bay went on to upset the Dallas Cowboys in the divisional round and were just shy of knocking off the San Francisco 49ers to reach the NFC Championship.

But like Murphy said, his time in Green Bay is almost over, as he will have to retire after next season and the Packers will begin their search for a new CEO.
