VIDEO: Packers Should Probably Sign Hero Dad Who Amazingly Caught His Daughter Falling Out of Her Crib
By Michael Luciano
The Green Bay Packers apparently thought it was more important to start planning for life after Aaron Rodgers than to surround the future Halll of Famer with new weapons, as they used their first two draft picks in the 2020 NFL Draft on Utah State quarterback Jordan Love and Boston College running back AJ Dillon. Not a single draft pick on a wide receiver? If the Packers are angling to corner the market on underrated free agents in 2020, they might need to pick up this dad based off his film. With his daughter about to fall out of her crib, he leaped out of his chair and dove to prevent her from hitting the floor. Get this guy a uniform.
This dad had the catch of the year ?

The explosion off the snap is obvious, as are his soft hands, his ability to contort his body to make the catch, and his playmaking ability. While he did take a few years off, we still don't know how this guy went undrafted, to be totally honest.
After fruther review, the dad got both hands under the child and maintained possession to the ground. The child did not hit the ground, therefore it is ruled a catch. The dad will not be charged with a time out.

Rodgers is in need of some warm bodies at receiver, and this guy certainly has a higher ceiling than Devin Funchess. Why not bring him in?
