The 1999 season was the Green Bay Packers' 79th in the National Football League (NFL) and their 81st overall. It was the first and only season for head coach Ray Rhodes and the first time since 1992 Reggie White was not on the roster as he retired after the Packers loss to the 49ers in the playoffs. The Packers finished 8âÂÂ8, posting their worst record since Brett Favre took over the helm as the Packers' starting quarterback, and also missing the playoffs for the first time since 1992.
In the 1999 NFL draft, the Packers selected free safety Antuan Edwards in the first round (25th overall). Notably, the Packers drafted future Pro Bowl wide receiver Donald Driver in the seventh round (213th overall).
The Packers finished in fourth place in the NFC Central division with an 8âÂÂ8 record, behind the 8âÂÂ8 Detroit Lions due to a conference record tiebreaker.
