The 1969 Green Bay Packers season was their 51st season overall and their 49th season in the National Football League. The team finished with an 8–6 record under coach Phil Bengtson, earning them a 3rd-place finish in the Central division.

Plagued by injuries and inconsistent play, the team clawed their way to their 10th winning season in the last 11 years.
