The Green Bay Packers have signed coach Mike McCarthy to a contract extension, general manager Ted Thompson announced Monday.

In his ninth season with the Packers, McCarthy has led them to four division titles and a Super Bowl championship, and his 93 wins rank third in franchise history behind Curly Lambeau (212) and Vince Lombardi (98).

“We are very happy to extend our relationship with Mike,” Thompson said. “Over the past nine years, he’s provided great stability and consistency to the Packers organization and our community as an excellent coach and leader. He’s a good man and we look forward to the future with Mike as our head coach.”

Terms of the deal were not revealed by the team.

The Packers are 5-3 this season, sitting one game behind the Detroit Lions in the NFC North.
