Green Bay — On page 147 of the 2009 Green Bay Packer media guide, there's a head shot of Spencer Havner. Below his name, it lists his position and college: linebacker and UCLA.
The media guide needs updating, as Havner has established himself in the last two weeks at a new position: tight end.
Proving his first touchdown in the National Football League last week in a rout of Cleveland was no fluke, Havner scored twice Sunday against one of the league's premier defenses in a 38-26 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
