A couple of new Green Bay Packers showed off their new threads recently.

Every year, the NFLPA selects rookies across the entire league to attend the event "based on factors such as college performance, draft status, position, and marketability, all of which affect trading card value." It is, after all, presented by Panini America.

For the Packers, those rookies were former Michigan State wide receiver Jayden Reed and former Penn State quarterback Sean Clifford. 

In the tweet below you can see them both in Packers uniforms:

During the event, the player's union aims to give rookies the chance to "learn about the business of pro football from union leadership, following the footsteps of established players who have gone through the same experience."

Reed should see a significant role in the offense this year with first-time starter Jordan Love. While Clifford is more of a developmental backup.
