Twitter reacts to Packers being named host of 2025 NFL Draft

The Green Bay Packers will host the 2025 NFL Draft, the NFL announced on Monday. 

According to the NFL, the 2025 draft will occur in the vicinity of Lambeau Field and the Titletown district in Green Bay, Wis. 

The Packers, a four-time Super Bowl-winning organization, will host their first NFL Draft in 2025, a milestone that the team has been pursuing for years. 

After years of dedicated efforts, the Packers finally achieved their goal of hosting the prestigious NFL Draft, which will be held in under two years' time.

“We are so excited and honored to be able to host the draft in 2025,” Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy said on Monday. “This is something we’ve been working on for a while. I think we started the process in 2016 and I’m just really happy, not only for the organization but for the whole community.”

The draft, which is the biggest off-season event for the NFL, will be hosted by the Detroit Lions in 2024 before transitioning to the Packers in 2025.
