Marcedes Lewis likely never thought his NFL career would lead him to playing for the Packers.
But after the Jaguars released him in 2018 and he spoke with his mother, Aaron Rodgers and Jimmy Graham, they convinced the southern California native to put his retirement thoughts on hold and join them in the frozen tundra.
Since the former Pro Bowl tight end traded the “75 degree and sunny with a slight breeze” weather for Green Bay’s iconic winters, Lewis has embraced his relationship with Rodgers and his role in the Packers’ offense. In working in an offense with a signal caller that is “destined for a gold jacket” after his NFL career, Lewis revealed that Green Bay has two different offensive playbooks, crediting the prowess of Rodgers.
