Anthony Davis and Jerry Rice have taken the sidelines at Levi’s Stadium ahead of the San Francisco 49ers’ divisional playoff game against the Green Bay Packers.
The Lakers star was seen on the field with teammates D’Angelo Russell and Jared Vanderbilt, donning a green Aaron Jones jersey and tossing the pigskin. Davis also made a video for the NFL’s social media channels to support his Packers.
‘NFL, what’s up baby? It’s your boy AD here,’ he says. You already know who I am going with, Green Bay Packers. Go Pack, go. We’re about to get an upset here at Levi’s Stadium, man.
The 49ers ended the regular season with an amazing 12-5 record, leading the NFC West. Despite having tied records with the Cowboys and Lions, San Francisco clinched the NFC’s top seed, avoiding a wildcard game.
Quarterback Brock Purdy led the 49ers this season, completing 308 of 444 passes for 4,280 yards and 31 touchdowns. Meanwhile, McCaffrey leads them with 1,459 rushing yards and 14 touchdowns.
In contrast, Green Bay finished second in the NFC North with a 9-8 record. Green Bay concluded the regular season with a three-game winning run before defeating the Cowboys 48-32 in the wild card round.
Jordan Love, Green Bay’s quarterback, has achieved stardom as Aaron Rodgers’ successor. The 25-year-old completed 372 of 579 regular-season attempts for 4,159 yards and 32 touchdowns.
The winner of Saturday’s game in the Bay Area will meet the winner of Sunday’s clash between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Detroit Lions for the NFC Championship.
