A.J. Hawk was loved when he was in Green Bay playing for the Packers.
He was loved when he was cut by the Packers and then went on to sign with the Cincinnati Bengals and is now a member of that franchise.
It has been difficult not to like the guy.
Off the field, he was involved deeply in the community and helped so many people through good works.
On the field, he was a blue collar, hard working tackling machine for the Packers.
