GREEN BAY, Wis. -- No one calls Alstevis Squirewell by his full name. Just about everywhere he’s been, he goes by the nickname "Squirrel."
Except at Wal-Mart, where his employee nametag read Alstevis.
If all goes well, he’ll never have to answer to Alstevis again.
Squirewell doesn’t just have an unusual name; his path to the NFL has been just as atypical. A defensive end at Division II Newberry College in South Carolina, he’s in training camp with the Green Bay Packers as a fullback. While finishing his college degree in physical education last spring, he took a $10.
