Jordy Nelson and Jeff Janis switch things up
Packers receivers swap jerseys during final public practice of training camp
GREEN BAY – Jeff Janis noticed the double-takes as soon as the Packers receiver began biking down to Nitschke Field for the final public practice of training camp.
Donning Jordy Nelson’s No. 87 jersey, the cries of “Jordy” were quickly replaced by laughter when fans and teammates alike realized what was going on.
Moments later, Nelson appeared with pads tucked up into Janis’ No. 83 jersey. It was a tongue-in-cheek gesture by the two 6-foot-3 receivers, who are separated by a few pounds difference on the team roster.
