Kuhn Is Hall Of Fame's Featured Player Of The Week

090930kuhn215.jpg



For his performance vs. the St. Louis Rams, fullback John Kuhn was chosen as the Packers Hall of Fame Featured Player of the Week. The exhibit contains memorabilia from the victory over the Rams, including a game ball autographed by Kuhn.

Kuhn produced the first two-touchdown game of his pro career. His first TD came on a fullback dive from the 1-yard line in the second quarter. His second TD sealed the game in the fourth quarter after a Charles Woodson interception gave the Packers the ball on the St. Louis 26. A couple of plays later, Kuhn was wide open in the right flat on a play-action bootleg, caught Aaron Rodgers' short pass in stride and sprinted through open space to the front pylon for the final points of the game.

The Hall of Fame's weekly exhibit, The Hall of Fame Featured Player of the Week, contains memorabilia from each week's game, including a game ball autographed by a featured player of the week.

Each Monday (or in the case of a Monday night game, Tuesday), new items from the previous day's game will be placed in the display to be viewed by visitors to the Hall. Included among the items will be the autographed game ball, which at the end of the week will be awarded randomly to a Hall of Fame visitor who signed up for the free drawing.

The winners of game balls thus far have been Janice Pettengil, Lansing, Mich. (Week 1, Johnny Jolly), and Ron Meier, Menomonee Falls, Wis. (Week 2, Charles Woodson).

Also in the exhibit will be the featured player's jersey, as well as potentially other items such as a face mask, shoes, gloves and other equipment.

The exhibit opened this week and will continue through the season. Hall of Fame admission is required to see the exhibit, and visitors are able to fill out a raffle form for a chance to win the ball. One raffle ticket will be distributed per each paid admission. Raffle winners will be selected at close of business Saturday and be notified on or before the following Monday.

The featured player will be selected after each game and will be indicated in game coverage on the team's Web site, Packers.com. Packers.com also will feature a photo of the display at the beginning of each week.
