While I love the fact that the Packers beat the Bears on Sunday night, and I love the fact that the Packers are now just one win away from clinching the NFC North Division title...but my favorite story to come from last week's game was the promotion of third string quarterback Kurt Benkert from the practice squad to the active roster due to Jordan Love being placed on the Covid list. He's a fun guy on social media and posted something last week before the game that got picked up and shared by people nationally. He wrote, "Been in the league 1,319 days & Sunday will be my first time suiting up got a game".
And since the Packers won pretty big, Benkert got into the game to take the victory knee!
