The Packers will honor one of their all-time greats this season.
Quarterback Bart Starr, a Half of Famer and two-time Super Bowl MVP who would later coach the team, died last month. According to the Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette, the Packers could announce as soon as Friday plans for celebrating Starr’s life.
CEO Mark Murphy said last week that a celebration will be planned in connection with “an early home game” in 2019. The commemoration could be in the form of a halftime ceremony, a Saturday event, or both.
A public memorial for Starr will be held at Samford University in Birmingham tomorrow.
