The NFL is competitive on any given Sunday, and particularly during the postseason, when teams know a loss means the season is over and all hopes of a Super Bowl are gone.
Packers’ Christine Michael celebrates a punt with Giants’ Eric Pinkins
Michael and Pinkins were teammates with the Seattle Seahawks.
Jeanna Kelley has been covering the Falcons for The Falcoholic since 2011 and the NFL for SB Nation since 2015.
Still, that didn’t stop these two special teamers, one Giants player and one Packers player, from celebrating with each other after a 29-yard Brad Wing punt and a Micah Hyde fair catch on behalf of Green Bay.
That’s Giants safety Eric Pinkins, who spent the 2014 and 2015 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. He’s celebrating with running back Christine Michael, who was acquired by Green Bay after being waived by the Seahawks during the season.
Obviously, these players are at odds Sunday, with their respective teams’ futures on the line based on the outcome of the game. Still, the former teammates exhibited great sportsmanship.
The winner of the matchup between the Giants and the Packers will face the top-seeded Dallas Cowboys next week in the Divisional Round.
