Packers Fans Had A Newborn With a Broken Collarbone, Named It After Aaron Rodgers

[via]

Usually injuries suffering during birth aren’t things that parents tend to celebrate, but then not everyone is a Packers fan. Thankfully.

Just like the Green Bay Packers quarterback, this Aaron suffered a broken collarbone on a pretty big play.

It was his birth.

The 8-pound boy was born Sunday — hours before kickoff for the hometown NFL team — with the same injury currently nagging the Green Bay quarterback.

So, for parents who are both green-and-gold loyalists, the choice of a name for the newborn seemed only logical.

Meet Aaron Rodger Dryer.

I suppose there are worse football players to be named for. Luckily for them it wasn’t a concussion that is sidelining Rodgers. You want the kid to live a little before the CTE sets in.

Worth noting: the couple also has a 4-year-old named Madysen.
