Lance Kendricks caught eight touchdowns during his time as a Wisconsin Badger, and he’s seems to be at it again.
This time, however, Kendricks is a member of the Green Bay Packers, and is catching touchdowns from superstar Aaron Rodgers instead of Scott Tolzien.
Kendricks played for the Badgers from 2007-2010, catching 78 passes for 1,160 yards and eight touchdowns. The 2010 season was Kendricks’ best, as he caught five touchdowns, was a finalist for the John Mackey Award and was a consensus first-team All-American at tight end.
He was taken in the second round of the 2011 NFL Draft by the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams, and spent his entire career there until his release in 2017.
Kendricks, who was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, also hasn’t forgotten his roots, as he threw up a “W” in reference to his Wisconsin days.

Kendricks was signed by Green Bay during the spring of 2017, trying to revive his NFL career with the Packers in the same state he went to college.
That plan seems to be working well so far, as he’s becoming a red zone option for Rodgers, the former NFL MVP, who has a receiving corps that flaunts Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Martellus Bennett.
