Allegedly a human decided that he was super and elected himself team captain for the Green Bay Packers this past weekend so zier Alexander it came out was not one of the announced captains for the Green Bay Packers this past weekend but whenever the coin toss took place there was four players out there

Even though three had been announced Jer Alexander was added he added himself is what we found out now today and he called it and spoke so now today it has come out he’s been suspended for suay football’s game against the Minnesota Vikings well a game in which they have

To win and if they win out the ESPN analytics are giving them a what percent chance 96 I believe the 90 a 96% chance of making the playoffs the Green Bay Packers still in contention very much so in this first year with Jordan love and Zer Alexander has been suspended for a

Massive game against the Minnesota Vikings because Brian gun said what happened before the game now for those that didn’t the decision to suspend a player is never easy and not one we take lightly unfortunately jer’s actions prior to the game in Carolina led us to take this step said gun as an

Organization we have an expectation that everyone puts the team first while we were disappointed we had a good conversation with Jer this morning and fully expect him to learn from this as we move forward together we look forward to welcoming him back next week as a valued member of this team and will

Continue to be in the future okay so that’s a big deal that’s a big suspension obviously we got a chance to hear what Zer Alexander said immediately after the game about not actually being captain and just kind of electing himself captain of the team and deciding to speak here’s from Matt shneidman’s

Twitter account about Zer on the incident immediately after the game supposed to be a captain cuz the team announces the three game captains and you were the fourth and you called a toss what happened there oh yeah I mean you know it’s only Su you

Know I don’t think coach knew I was from Charlotte you know so so you just did that on your own I mean I mean you know I mean it was like a you know the guys backed me up you know this is real they knew I was from here did you realize you

Almost made a big mistake on the call though what’ I do well you said we want to go on defense yeah which in theory could they could have said then you’re electing to kick to to uh kick off which you would have lost the opportunity then

To receive in the second half yeah no I told him that uh I said uh I want I want our defense to be out there and they all looked at me like I was crazy I’m like I mean it’s pretty simple what I say like

I want the defense to be they like you mean defer I’m like yeah I guess he did he say that to you the M the mic was on he heard you oh really no he was just like defer I was like yeah everybody’s like yeah everybody was laughing I’m

Like what y’all laughing at like it’s pretty obvious what I’m asking for so did anyone say anything to you when you got back to the sideline why would they that’s not a movie no AJ was real life sunglasses on you know let me get out of here there is some verbiage at a

Coin toss you know any of us that have gone out there it’s like can’t say this have to say this cuz if you say this like he said there is an opportunity for you not to have the ball either half because if you defer your option into

The second half then you’re getting the ball in the second half pretty much it’s a technicality but it is something that actually takes place out there figure out who’s talking hey Pat you got it you talking I’m talking so you figure that out boom coach says hey this is what

We’re thinking I in vinary normally vinary but I happen to be sitting there so I guess they just asked us in general but like there’s a lot of people Tak it into consider hey which way do we want to go if we don’t have this is what we

Want to do hey we’re taking the ball if we get a chance we’re setting a tone there’s a full conversation that takes place amongst those captains and the coach and everybody I I the ref saved him though the ref saved him you could have screwed

Him like if you don’t save the like you could be kicking both times so I I give the ref credit I guess for saving him yeah shout out to the ref being a human which is what we were looking for bill vinovich with the same sa thing like be

A human here we all agree so I appreciate that everybody knew what I was saying you know with the sunglasses on and now C watched that video and was just like are you this guy he just elected himself we didn’t know he’s from Charlotte so he

Said yeah we’re playing here I need to be the captain I’m going out there the guys back me the guys back the GU he said the guy backed me the guys backed me you know they thought it was this is an entertaining human being Zer Alexander has been throughout the entirety

What a move by him and now Sunday Night Football you’re out without one of your best players and a guy who can elect himself captain and boys are like yeah you can do that what a VI he’s a he’s a big part of that locker room I feel like

His personality ah we’ll see him next week although we need to win both games Tai schmit you’re an owner of that team you got guys just electing themselves to be be a captain out of nowhere right before the game and then almost mess it up what the hell’s going on in Green Bay

Pal I mean just a nightmare you know it seems like wacky happens every week the kind of just leaves you wondering what the hell’s going on and then yeah you know I mean the the basically if the Packers went out and the Steelers beat the Seahawks the Packers will be the six

Seed in the NFC playoff picture uh and now you got to go uh play the Vikings Nick M starting for back toback 300 yard games Justin Jefferson is uh is back and now we’re going to have to start you know two seventh round rookies at at cornerback as as opposed to you

Know your All Pro guy who you pay made a bunch of money too so yeah this is elected himself I’ve never heard this this out of a movie the video so that’s where we are right now have you ever it’s not a movie this is real life right

Now for the Green Bay Packers who are still very much in playoff conversation very much very much this have you ever heard about this did Brad ever tell you no me neither dude this is a movie this is great I I have so so outlandish that

I have respect for it I mean that is a big baller move that’s an alpha he’s like hey I got this the whole thing yeah I’m not even supposed to be out there I’m gonna go out there hey call it no problem that’s me and once we decide he

Guys guess who me again that is awesome and it think did no helmet definitely no helmet might CH on how do we know no helmet you you do feel a little different when you’re playing in your home you know you got the home air home state whatever so maybe you just feel

Himself like you know what I’m J you know every week he picks people from the city in which we play to be captains here we are City he must have forgot that’s what he said he actually said I think coaches forgot him from Charlotte the boys

Backed me up he said the boys were like yeah you are like did he go around asking people like who was he like hey should I do it should I should I go out there I think he’s talking about the boys that were next to I think he showed

Up and was like right right only fitting that’s what I thought and he walks out there I mean haven’t gone out for a lot of corn tosses this this I I’m just trying to picture somebody walking up next to me and I’m going to go out there and I’m

Like wait what we you’re not normally here like what so on and then I start taking a couple steps and then he starts taking a couple I’m like wait a second wait so oh so you’re gonna come and then we all right whatever fine he’s calling

It he’s calling and then go heads or tails and I start to say tales and the guy goes hey what the hell please then he wins it yeah yes so he’s like ahuh what I say defense out there he said ah Jer thank you man love you Jer

Suspension seems kind of doesn’t the suspension seem like a lot though yes yeah I think so full game check too kidding me there’s too much there’s too much on the line there’s more going on there there’s more going on way that’s is he Far Side of ref too is he cuz

Normally you know those the one Speaking is closest to the ref is the ref ref’s got to be on the left side here right ref’s got to be here has to be but I agree with you it does kind of look far side because the the the kid is

Generally by the referee bro he’s speaking across every bu oh there’s no way there’s no way across he going to lean in he said everybody everybody was laughing so everyone definitely heard him Green Bay is it’s a young team so to JJ’s point if it’s JJ is probably a

Different convers or AJ up there some but you got young guys up Quay Walker and then he’s young he’s what his second year second year good call dbut that’s a good W know they get they get named good there’s captains every game so they don’t really know

They could think like yeah yeah J’s from here I’m sure coach told him to come out right congrats dude yeah it’s cool quite an honor oh you’re talking okay all right yeah from here from here everybody the boys agree the boys a lot of teams do do new captains every game yeah

That’s that’s some places yeah I guess now I’m thinking that yeah for yeah that type of stuff I like that I like that yeah because you know there will be the uh there normally is the three MH and then like that fourth one rotating you’ve seen like six seven people walk out

Before all that’s awesome okay you just put out side of a ball okay I always think it’s ridiculous at the beginning of the year when teams announce their captains I’ve been on a team where you have like nine captains or 10 and obviously only send three or four out

For the coin toss but like you got 11 C’s out there and I’m like all right at some point we are diminishing every single thing that matters with this denomination if we have 11 quarterbacks we have no quarterbacks you know that is kind of the issue we got here let’s talk

About absolute stallion of a brother that you have Captain Jer Alexander once again thank you keep going thank you Jer we hope you have a do it again as soon as you get back from suspension do it again what if they give what if on the

Way back they’re like you know what Jer has earned this we didn’t know how bad he wanted it yeah but he is our alternate Captain one iy can call it a coin toss we want it or do we not well he wants his defense out there well

Let’s just muzzle him after that whole thing what if the next captains text him before the game what would you call and what if that your screenshots that and then post it while he’s at home you guys probably not allowed to have cell phones on the field for the coin

Toss right you just FaceTime Jer on yeah they should bring him in there I hope he plays for 30 years so we can continue to see stuff like this that is phenomenal happy son on my team but excited that it’s taking Place
