The Packers and Chiefs squared off on Sunday Night Football, meaning NFL fans were treated to the broadcast’s weekly primetime player introductions.
Green Bay got the ball first, and Packers running back AJ Dillon took the brief opportunity to crack a joke during his introduction, rather than shout out his alma mater like most players do.
When it came time for Dillon to introduce himself, he joked that he attended school at Quad Squad University.
With Aaron Jones sidelined by an injury, Dillon entered the starting lineup in Green Bay for just the fifth time this season. He made the most of his starting opportunity in prime time, cracking a joke about his renowned lower body strength during his introduction.
"AJ Dillon, Quad Squad University"

He joins a long list of NFL players to have some fun with their Sunday Night Football introductions.
Earlier this season, Jets’ D.J. Reed declared that he had attended “HIM University.” In a separate game, Giants’ offensive lineman Justin Pugh hilariously quipped that he was “straight off the couch.”
Last week, Ravens star Lamar Jackson said “Ball ‘til you fall,” instead of naming his alma mater, Louisville, while Odell Beckham Jr. said he hailed from “Himothy University.”
The Packers drove down for a touchdown on their opening drive, with Dillon and his legs playing a big role out the gate.
NFL fans on social media thoroughly enjoyed Dillon’s comical introduction.
