The NFL season is here, and they took their professional football show on the road this weekend with a game in Brazil between the Green Bay Packers and Philadelphia Eagles. In the game, which was won by the Eagles, former Michigan State football wide receiver Jayden Reed was one of the breakout players of the game and impressed in a big way.
Reed, who already led the Packers’ wide receivers in yards last year with 793, racked up four receptions for 138 yards and a touchdown along with a rushing carry for 33 yards that went for a touchdown.

Overall, it was a disappointing night for the Packers, who had their starting quarterback Jordan Love go down with an injury when the team had a chance to tie the game, but they have to be excited about what they saw from former MSU wide out Jayden Reed.
Still scoring TDs… Jayden Reed takes it 34 yards to the house! @Packers
