GREEN BAY — From personal experience, Ruvell Martin knows this much about Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur and quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
"Matt and Aaron have something in common," Martin said with a laugh during an ESPN Wisconsin interview last offseason. "They didn't throw it to me enough."
Yes, the ex-Packers and ex-Saginaw Valley State wide receiver caught passes from both LaFleur and Rodgers during his football career, and on Wednesday, Martin was reunited with his two favorite quarterbacks and buddies when the Packers hired him for LaFleur's inaugural minority coaching fellowship.
The position is a yearlong, full-time position for young and aspiring minority coaches.
