Ranking The Rookies: Jerron McMillian
Fourth-round safety played more than expected last season
The Green Bay Packers began the season with 10 rookies on the 53-man roster. That’s a pretty high number – especially for a team than won 15 games the previous year.

Packers’ Jerron McMillian has not gotten a haircut in more than seven years
A lot of players in the NFL like to rock the long hair look — particularly defenders.
