Randall Cobb and Aaron Rodgers Share Moment Before Packers-Cowboys as Jordy Nelson Makes Cameo
By Sean Facey
The Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys are set to square off on Sunday afternoon, and their matchup just so happens to bring some old friends together. Cowboys wide receiver Randall Cobb and former Green Bay Packers teammate Aaron Rodgers shared some time together down on the field prior to doing battle on opposite sides.
The two spent eight years together in Green Bay, winning the NFC North together five times. They formed one of the deadliest quarterback-receiver duos in all of football.
Even though they've gone in their separate directions, the two have immense respect for one another. They formed quite a bond while they were teammates, and the change in uniforms for Cobb hasn't done anything to diminish that.
But Cobb wasn't the only former Packers wide receiver in the house to say hello.
Another one of Rodgers' favorite targets, Jordy Nelson, was also in Dallas for the Packers' game against the Cowboys, but his loyalties seemed to be with Cobb. He was spotted wearing his jersey on the sidelines ahead of the highly-anticipated showdown.
At the end of the day, though, it's heartwarming to see such close former teammates meet up again. When they were together, they formed one of the most formidable offense in the NFL. Nobody wanted to cross paths with the Packers when all three of them were on the gridiron.
And for a brief time, we got to see them share some touching encounters as friends once again.
