GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Aaron Rodgers stared up at the Levi’s Stadium scoreboard, a wide smile stretching across his face as he watched the replay.
The Green Bay Packers star quarterback may not be able to decide on a cinematic nickname for undrafted rookie quarterback Joe Callahan -- “Bo” (for the fictional Wisconsin quarterback in “Draft Day”) or “Big Tom Callahan’s Son” (for Chris Farley’s classic character in “Tommy Boy”) -- but Rodgers seems sure of this: The kid can play.
“It’s fun to see him progress,” Rodgers told reporters following the Packers’ 21-10 preseason victory over the San Francisco 49ers Friday night in Santa Clara, California.
