GREEN BAY, Wis. – Like a cornerback jumping an out route – something that’s easier said than done against his favorite quarterback – Jordy Nelson answered the question before it had even ended.
“One,” the Green Bay Packers wide receiver replied when he was asked how many pick-six interceptions his quarterback and best buddy Aaron Rodgers has thrown in his NFL career.
Then, a pause. Not to contemplate what a truly astonishing statistic that is – and when compared to other quarterbacks, including a host of Pro Football Hall of Famers, it really is incredible – but to add an asterisk.
