Aaron Rodgers may no longer be a member of the Green Bay Packers, but that won’t stop him from impacting the lives of this year’s crop of rookies.
In particular, Packers rookie quarterback Sean Clifford.
The NFL teamed up with Fanatics to give certain rookies a chance to hear from their favorite NFL players, retired or active.
Clifford apparently chose Rodgers for his personal shoutout and Rodgers’ message was priceless – much like his play in Green Bay over the last 15 seasons.
“Welcome to Green Bay. How’s my locker, by the way?” Rodgers quipped while simultaneously eliciting a big laugh out of Clifford.
You can check out the clip, below. I recommend watching the whole thing, but Rodgers’/Clifford’s moment is at the 0:56 mark:

All of the rookies received a signed jersey with a personal message from their favorite player. Overall, it’s a really cool idea thrown together by the NFL and Fanatics. And as Clifford states at the end – it’s something he’ll remember for a long time.
