Following the Instagram rant by Martellus Bennett on Friday, Green Bay Packers players took to social media themselves to dispute the account Bennett portrayed of Packers team physician Dr. Pat McKenzie.
In Bennett’s posts, which you can read here, he accused Dr. McKenzie of pushing him to play through an injury when he should not have done so. After that, several Packers responded with strongly-worded statements in support of the physician, and the group weighing in includes several former Packers as well.
The first person to publish comments was, of all people, Jordy Nelson, which is particularly notable as he rarely uses social media.
