The Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions will most likely compete for the top spot in the NFC North in 2024. There appears to be a lot of excitement surrounding the Vikings and Bears, but it would be shocking to see either of them contend with two playoff-caliber teams straight away.
During the 2024 NFL Draft, a Lions fan became viral for teasing Packers fans during their selection. Now he has received something exceptional from his team.
According to Derek Hutchinson from Click On Detroit:
It all started late in the first round of the NFL Draft in Detroit, with the Green Bay Packers selecting 25th overall. Lions supporters were ecstatic because general manager Brad Holmes had just traded up to No. 24 to get Terrion Arnold, one of the best cornerbacks available.
The Packers responded by selecting offensive tackle Jordan Morgan, who was primarily regarded as a second-round potential. The ESPN broadcast featured a Packers supporter sporting a cheesehead, and Morgan’s selection was definitely not what he expected.
A neighboring Lions fan took full advantage of his friend’s discomfort, laughing and pointed at him with both hands as the camera zoomed in and his friend’s head slumped. It was the icing on top of a fantastic night in downtown Detroit.
Lions safety Kerby Joseph enjoyed that moment so much that he sent that Lions fan a really cool gift: the cleats he was wearing when he intercepted two Aaron Rodgers throws. The Lions also knocked the Packers out of playoff contention that night.
