This week, Dick's Sporting Goods released a report showing the current NFL player with the top-selling jersey in each state.
This year, Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has the state of Washington on lock. No surprise. Newcomer Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is the man in New York and New Jersey. Of course. Texas loves them some Dez Bryant, (maybe could've seen J.J. Watt come through with the upset, but I digress). Rookie quarterback and this year's No. 1 overall pick Jameis Winston is not only the toast of Tampa, but the entire state of Florida.
Now, look over at Wisconsin.
Did you just react like this?
Welcome to the club! Wisconsin is the home state of the Green Bay Packers, who have last season's MVP Aaron Rodgers, Eddie Lacy, Clay Matthews and Jordy Nelson, but Bears running back Matt Forte is the one with the top-selling jersey in the state?! What's going on?
