Collaboration key to ensuring the Green Bay area is ready to host the NFL draft

Shed any thoughts or concerns that the NFL's smallest market can't handle the league's second-largest event: Green Bay area is ready to host the 2025 NFL draft.

League officials on Monday joined municipal leaders and tourism officials to applaud the region, particularly its public safety agencies, for more than a year of collaboration and cooperation in preparation to host the draft, April 24-26.

Ralph Ennis, the NFL's director of investigations and security, said Green Bay Police, Metro Fire, Ashwaubenon Public Safety and the Brown County Sheriff's Office understood its roles and the importance of collaboration to making the draft first and foremost, a safe event for everyone who attends.
