Jordy Nelson was once teammates with an athlete who went on to become a U.S. Olympic bobsledder.
Randall Cobb has apparently seen “Cool Runnings.”
But the Green Bay Packers wide receivers’ bobsled celebration on Sunday lacked something very important -- a fourth man.
Nelson, Cobb and Davante Adams made up the rare three-man bobsled team after an Adams touchdown in Sunday’s 35-31 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
Nelson, the brains behind the operation, according to Packers.com, may be familiar with one U.S. Olympian.
Johnny Quinn, who famously broke out of a locked bathroom in Sochi, spent the 2008 preseason with the Packers, when Nelson was a second-round rookie.
