Goodell, Packers legends show up to 2025 NFL Draft on bicycles

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell showed up to the 2025 NFL Draft in style.

Goodell rode a bike onto the stage in Green Bay, Wisconsin to make his grand entrance. Several Green Bay Packers legends, including former linebacker Clay Matthews, and rapper (and well-known Packers fan) Lil Wayne joined the commissioner in his brief ride.

The bit was an homage to the Packers’ annual tradition of riding their own bikes to training camp practices.

As is tradition, boos rained down on the commissioner as he arrived on the stage, though Goodell continued to smile and wave to the gathered crowd. The audience changed their tune when Lil Wayne rode in on his bike; they cheered loudly for the rapper.

Goodell went on to announce the Tennessee Titans were officially on the clock with the No. 1 overall pick.

Moments later, Tennessee selected Miami (Florida) quarterback Cam Ward, who becomes the 90th player in history to be the first overall selection in the NFL draft.
