In honor of Green Bay Packers President/CEO Mark Murphy's final season at the helm of the storied franchise, the organization will celebrate his accomplishments with a special halftime ceremony on Monday, Dec. 23, when the Packers face the Saints.

The ceremony will include remarks from Murphy and a special video looking back on his tenure. Murphy will also be featured on the cover of the game program and on the game coin used for the coin flip. A commemorative pin in honor of Murphy's time as President and CEO will also be available for purchase at the Packers Pro Shop starting on Dec. 23.

Murphy, who came to the Packers in 2008, has spent 17 seasons with the team, overseeing tremendous growth for the organization and leading the team through numerous milestones. Under his leadership, the Packers have continued to rank as one of the NFL's premier franchises, with highly successful operations both on and off the field. The club has made 12 playoff trips during his tenure, including a team-record eight straight (2009 to 2016), advanced to five NFC title games and earned a victory in Super Bowl XLV.

Murphy has also directed the organization's master plan involving the Lambeau Field campus, with the organization investing more than $600 million in Lambeau Field, all financed without public tax money. He has prioritized enhancing the fan experience through stadium additions and renovations, while also ensuring the player and coach facilities remain at the top of the NFL. Murphy led the creation of Titletown, a vibrant, 45-acre development that opened in 2017 and has become a destination for visitors and residents alike. Titletown offers public, year-round programming, as well as residences; food, beverage, entertainment and hospitality offerings; and TitletownTech, a joint venture between the Packers and Microsoft aimed at driving economic growth and job creation through technology and digital innovation. Murphy has also worked to increase the number of outside events utilizing Lambeau Field, including concerts, college football, soccer matches and the NFL Draft in 2025.

His time with the Packers has complemented his prior career achievements, including an eight-year playing career with the Washington Redskins, time spent as assistant executive director of the NFL Players Association and trial attorney with the U.S. Department of Justice, and a combined 16 years as director of athletics at Colgate University and Northwestern University. Murphy is believed to be the first person in NFL history to achieve a Super Bowl win as a player (XVII, 1982) and as a CEO (XLV, 2010).

Murphy officially will retire in July of 2025.
