In week two, Packers running back Aaron Jones lost a chain with his father’s ashes in Lambeau Field. Now, to make sure that doesn’t happen again, the franchise has come up with something special.

Munich – It was one of the NFL upsets in Week 2. In the win against the Detroit Lions, Packers running back Aaron Jones had lost his father’s ashes.

While celebrating one of his four touchdowns, he lost the necklace with his father’s ashes in the end zone of Lambeau Field. After the game, various employees of the franchise searched for the piece of jewellery in the shape of a black football – and were successful.

At 1:45 in the morning, athletic trainer Bryan Engel handed the valuable piece to his protégé.

To ensure that the 26-year-old can always carry his beloved father with him, the Packers have now come up with something very special.

Gordon Batty, who has taken care of the team’s equipment for many years, has sewn a small pocket into Jones’ jersey. “I can just put it in there and not have to worry about it falling out,” the running back is quoted as saying by “ESPN. “
