Green Bay Packers: Verne Lewellen wore #46 best

With 46 days left until the start of the Green Bay Packers NFL season, our countdown to the big day continues.

Sunday, Sept. 11, is the day when the Packers travel to Jacksonville to take on the upstart jaguars in the season opener.

Quick, give me the name of a single player who wore number 46 … no, I can’t either.

That’s why we turn to John Maxymuk and his book on those unheralded and unremembered players.

If you’re like Maxymuk, the author of “Packers by the Numbers: Jersey Numbers and the Players Who Wore them,” you understand that we take a look at #46, it’s difficult to think of single player who has worn that number.
