An article in the Wisconsin State Journal on June 15 includes these comments from Jordy Nelson. “We’re not coming back. There’s no doubt about that. We’re done,” the former Green Bay Packers star wideout said during an interview on ESPN Wisconsin last week. “I’ve always laughed and talked to Emily about it — when you first get in the NFL and you’re performing very well, you’re underpaid; and then when you sign a big contract, you become overpaid. When you’re towards the end of your career, you get released and people say you’re too slow, you’ve lost a step, you can’t play anymore; and then apparently when you retire, everyone wants you to come back.”

Online High School Virtual Skill Development for Quarterbacks

This Virtual Skill Development Camp will offer quarterbacks of all ages an opportunity to hone their skills while continuing to practice social distancing. Each camp session, UW-Whitewater’s Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks Coach, Peter Jennings will take participants through quarterback specific drills, offer live feedback, and give recommendations to aid growth. All drills will have accommodations based off of space limitations and skill levels. Let’s get better even if we can’t be together! Participants can sign up for as many sessions as they like. We will expand on our teaching and drills every session, but don’t worry; we will make accommodations for all skill levels.   This event is for High School Quarterbacks entering grades 9-12 in Fall 2020. Cost is $25 per session.
