Here’s some of the best quotes from fans, players and others during Day 2 of the 2025 NFL Draft:

“It was just a one-off thought thinking maybe I’ll wear this mask and hopefully no one sees me on TV. What happens? My best friend calls me up and asks, ‘Is that you in the Grinch costume?’ I was like, no. How can you tell? ‘Oh, you’re wearing a number 92 jersey and the way you’re standing.’ Then I said yeah, that’s me.”

John Akspulewicz a.k.a. The Green Bay Grinch

“It just shows how the community comes together especially in a big football town. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and I didn’t want to miss out. I can’t wait to keep getting out and meeting with people, share moments with them.

“It’s really just a patience thing, for me, trust God, lean on your family and the people you love. Everything happens for a reason.”

“I’ve been enjoying it, being out here is a blast. We brought the cow in today so we’ve got ‘Moohomes’ as we say, being here in the Dairyland State. The history here in Green Bay is phenomenal.”

“I think it’s been exciting. Everybody was really excited about the [Matthew Golden] pick, and he certainly knows how to run his routes. The first time I came to Lambeau was with my son 15 years ago, and so many fans welcomed us. My son is really into Star Wars, and he suggested I be ‘Pack Vader.'”
