The quarterback said, “18 years I’ve never once until tonight seen an opposing team’s kicker kick away from one of our returners on purpose. That’s fun.” He also mentioned that he thinks that Nixon is a huge difference-maker for the team and that he is very thankful for him.

While Rodgers might seem like a hip enigma, he is a certified veteran of the league. With 18 years in the league, the QB has seen it all. Apart from Nixon’s spectacular play, old man A-Rod had some pretty interesting requests for the league. Rodgers would prefer that the famed Monday Night Football games be changed to an anti-climactic Monday afternoon football. He mentions that he got tired during the press conference and that it was past his ‘bedtime’.
