One’s starting is another one’s ending. Aaron Rodgers was replaced by Jordan Love as the Green Bay Packers starting quarterback previously after the four-time MVP left the team, and quarterback Sean Clifford is now in his place in the locker room.
Clifford of Penn State was selected by the Packers with the 149th overall pick in the fifth round on the third day of the NFL draft, finding his NFL home early.

Recently, Rodgers found the Jets to be his ideal home, and he is now a regular member of the Jets’ roster. It is therefore very simple to imagine another Packers player filling his vacant position and locker room. Consequently, the former Penn State star is now the owner of the locker room used by the former Packers players.
No still photographs allowed in the Packers locker room but fifth-round pick QB Sean Clifford now has Aaron Rodgers’ old locker. It’s at the end of the row next to long snapper Matt Orzech, RB Patrick Taylor, LB Isaiah McDuffie and Jordan Love in a row of five.

Clifford has undoubtedly had a wonderful experience, and the quarterback acknowledged as much after inheriting Rodgers’ locker and also vowed to honor all of Rodgers’ memories.
“I understand who was in here before, and I respect everything about that, but at the same time, I came in, I found my name on the plate, and I sat down,” he said. “I’m doing whatever it takes to win games here. I’m very appreciative of the opportunity.”
