The Green Bay Packers, who are often time known for how well they treat their players and fans, is facing some major backlash after one of their former players disclosed some troubling information. Green Bay apparently didn’t follow up a single time after an injury led to the end of one of their star’s career.
“Their Organization Sucks” Packers Facing Massive Backlash After They Failed To Check Up On Career Ending Injury (Report)
The NFL career of former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sterling Sharpe is considered one of football’s biggest what-ifs:
He played in only seven years in the NFL, all with the Packers, as his career was cut short by a neck injury that robbed him of the chance to have a much greater career than what he had already put together by the time he was forced to hang up his cleats.
Nevertheless, Sharpe’s legacy in the NFL has been further immortalized when he finally got his bronze bust in Canton in 2025. By getting inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, there is no denying anymore where he stands among the greats of the game.
Despite finally getting a Pro Football Hall of Fame call, Sharpe recently opened up about an old wound, one that happened during a tough time.
“I could die on the operating table,” Sharpe said during an appearance on his brother and fellow Pro Football Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe’s popular podcast, Club Shay Shay. “Not one person from the Green Bay Packers organization said, ‘Hey, how did your surgery go?’ Not one person from the organization.”

Sterling also said that he wasn’t “bothered” about not getting checked on by the Packers after his surgery, but instead, he was “disappointed” by it.
Through his incredible, albeit short, NFL career, Sterling came up with 8,134 receiving yards with 65 touchdowns on 595 catches across 112 games.
