• Former Missouri linebacker Ty’Ron Hopper has been gaining respect for his play on special teams for the Green Bay Packers.
“Hop’s really starting to show up,” special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia said in a press conference Thursday, especially on the kickoff team. He’s made some plays now. He’s been taken care of a little bit because other guys have shown up earlier and started to get doubled and he’s been singled a little bit and made three really good plays last week. He was our player of the week last week. And he’s really playing well on punt return. … He’s practicing really well. He’s playing really well for us in games.”
