GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Despite being the NFL's smallest city, Green Bay, Wisconsin, has produced a surprising number of draft picks and pro prospects in recent years. There was quarterback James Morgan in the fourth round last year, guard Max Scharping in the second in 2019 and defensive tackle Kahlil McKenzie in the sixth in 2018. There was even fullback Alec Ingold as an undrafted free agent in 2019.
More than 30 years had passed since a Green Bay native had ended up with his hometown team -- until Saturday.
