NextImg:Packers booted intruder with fake credential from practice

Packers fans will do just about anything to get in the team’s training camp. 

On Thursday, Green Bay kicked out a fan who claimed to be a video intern for the squad, showing up at practice fully dressed the part. 

“Gotta tip your cap to the cat who @JTWahlers just booted from practice for a fake credential,” Matt Schneidman, Packers beat reporter for The Athletic, tweeted

“It said he was a Packers video intern. Thing looked professional and everything. He had a camera and Packers polo. They’d never heard of him.”

Can’t blame a guy for trying. 

Users on X, formerly known as Twitter, gave props to the unidentified man who was nearly successful with the fake-credential scheme.

“Someone needs to find this man immediately this is hilarious,” one person tweeted

“I have a stupid amount of respect for the chaps who do stuff like this. What legends are made of,” another wrote

Beyond the media intruder, Thursday’s camp was a positive one, specifically for quarterback Jordan Love, 24, who is slotting into the starting position after three years behind Aaron Rodgers.

According to Sports Illustrated, Love went 8-for-16 passing and strung together some strong plays in the starters vs. starters two-minute drill, including a 14-yard completion to wide receiver Romeo Doubs.

Rodgers, 39, was acquired by the Jets in April after 18 seasons in Green Bay and Love is now tasked with filling the hole of the franchise legend. 

“I feel more hungry than ever,” Love said, according to SI. “Honestly, having that time to wait, the waiting just makes [me] more and more hungry for when you finally get out there.”

The third-year pro was selected in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft by Green Bay, but has played only 10 games since then, including one start.

Love has totaled 606 yards on 50-for-83 passing with three touchdowns and three interceptions.

Rodgers, now leading the Jets into a highly-anticipated 2023 season, gave Love some advice on the youngster’s new role.

“He said, ‘Just be yourself, have fun, enjoy it.’ It’s obviously my time now, and he said just be yourself, and you know, that’s all you can do,” Love said.

“That’s kind of been the message from everybody, is be yourself, don’t try to be Aaron.”
