Greg Jennings rooting for Colts now that he’s retired

Kansas City Chiefs v Green Bay Packers

Greg Jennings recently retired from the NFL after a ten-year career with the Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, and Miami Dolphins, but now that he’s done playing he has a new favorite team: the Indianapolis Colts.

He recently did an interview with NFL.com and talked about various things, but one of the things he mentioned was that he’ll return to rooting for the Colts now.

I can be more vocal about my passion and my love for the Colts. I've always been a Colts fan, so I guess [now that I'm retired] I can start back rooting for the Colts.

The Colts certainly welcome Jennings’ fandom, too:

Jennings played in 143 career games (starting 119) and caught 571 passes for 8,291 yards and 64 touchdowns, averaging 14.5 yards per catch. The bulk of his production came during his seven seasons with the Green Bay Packers, where he played with both Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers. He won a Super Bowl with the team in 2010 and was a two-time Pro Bowler.

The Colts are currently figuring out their own wide receiver position after T.Y. Hilton, Donte Moncrief, and Phillip Dorsett, but they’ll have another former receiver rooting for them this season.
