One of Green Bay's newest additions has a great appreciation for the franchise's history from growing up just across the Wisconsin-Illinois border.
Growing up in Rockford, Illinois, Dean Lowry was not a Green Bay Packers fan first and foremost.
"I think growing up, I was more of a Bears fan," Lowry said.

But I've always admired the Packers and just the way those guys play. We're all green and gold now.
