GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The NFL's smallest city isn't big enough to host a Super Bowl, but it is getting the next best thing.
The league announced Monday that the 2025 NFL draft will be held in Green Bay, Wisconsin, population 107,395.
This has been nearly a decade since in the making. Packers president Mark Murphy first revealed in 2016 that the team combined with local government and tourism officials to put in a bid to host the draft in as early as 2019. There had been concerns about whether the Green Bay area had enough infrastructure, including hotels and convention space, to host such a large-scale event.
