     https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Nick-Perry-Jersey , former Seattle Seahawks punter Jon Ryan is returning to his hometown of Regina, Saskatchewan to punt for the Roughriders of the Canadian Football League.Ryan announced the move on his Twitter account with a link to Diddy’s song “I’m Coming Home.” The tweet included the Canadian flag and green heart and white circle symbols, which are the colors of the Roughriders.“I feel like I can still play,” Ryan said last month while trying out for CFL teams. “If it was up to me, I’d play until I was 50. I think I’m far from done, so I wanted to pursue these CFL opportunities. As it turns out, there’s three, four Davante Adams Jersey , possibly five different opportunities out there.”Ryan, 37, was released by the Seahawks last August as rookie Michael Dickson was destined to win the punting job. He landed with the Buffalo Bills briefly during the preseason but was released during roster cuts and didn’t land an NFL job last year.Ryan went to the University of Regina and played wide receiver and punter at the school where he had a 109-yard touchdown reception. He played two seasons for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers before making the move to the NFL with the Green Bay Packers in 2006. After two seasons with the Packers, he was released at the end of training camp and signed with Seattle after the first week of the regular season. He spent a decade punting for the Seahawks before his release last year. If you weren’t already excited for the end of Game of Thrones, you’re probably a White Walker (in which case, why aren’t you dead?). Aaron Rodgers is just another reason to be pumped by Episode 5 on Sunday." />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesAcme Packing Company homepageHorizontal - WhiteAcme Packing Companya Green Bay Packers communityFollow Acme Packing Company online:Follow Acme Packing Company on TwitterFollow Acme Packing Company on FacebookFollow Acme Packing Company on InstagramLog in or sign upLog InSign UpSite searchSearchSearchAcme Packing Company main menuFanpostsFanshotsSectionsPackersOddsAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 321 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShare this storyShare this on FacebookShare this on TwitterShareAll sharing optionsShareAll sharing options for:Aaron Rodgers confirmed his rumored cameo on Game of Thrones, and it’s happening Sunday TwitterFacebookRedditPocketFlipboardEmailAaron Rodgers watched the Bucks win in Game 5, and now he’ll be in Episode 5 of Game of Thrones. Photo by Stacy Revere/Getty ImagesAaron Rodgers’ best performances tend to come on Sunday nights in primetime Josh Jones Color Rush Jersey , so Game of Thrones will be nothing new for the two-time MVP. After months, years even, of hinting that he’d like to be in the seminal HBO series, even showing up in part of their pre-season 8 branding, Rodgers cryptically confirmed he’d be in the series. (Editor’s note: some season 8 spoilers are below.)In a recent interview on the red carpet at the Kentucky Derby, when asked why he didn’t do more cameos in pop culture he responded, “Episode 5, Game of Thrones https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/David-Bakhtiari-Jersey ,” before walking away. This comes after another vague allusion to the fifth episode in a tweet a week after the Season 8 premiered, in which Rodgers reminded his followers about his preferred window for spoilers. He included the hashtag “episode5shouldbegood.”At the time, it would have been easy to conclude this was just Rodgers being Rodgers. I’m surprised he didn’t also use the #midrange hashtag just for fun. Even still, this was better, more subtle foreshadowing than the show runners have employed for going on three seasons at this point. Episode 5 sets up to be an enormous battle episode, one that stars of the show hinted could be even more epic than Episode 3’s Battle of Winterfell, the eponymous episode featuring the defeat of the Night King and the White Walkers.If the writers have any sense of symmetry (and honestly at this point, I have questions about that even though I love the show) Jason Spriggs Jersey , Rodgers would be in the Golden Company, both for the obvious color connection and their fame related to contracts. After all, Rodgers has the biggest in NFL history and the Golden Company is known for never having broken one. Plus, after #BucksIn5, it makes to have #RodgersIn5. As if you needed any more reason to be excited about Sunday night.
