GREEN BAY—Catching passes for 14 seasons with the Green Bay Packers, Donald Driver never stopped thanking the fans.

Getting a street named after him and having a statue unveiled in his honor, Driver didn’t stop on Saturday, either.

“It’s not my street sign, it’s your street sign,” Driver said to the several hundred folks who crowded into the Titletown Brewing Co. parking lot in downtown Green Bay to see their hero once again. They didn’t seem the least bit bothered by the fact that he arrived nearly 45 minutes late.

“To have a statue that has my name on the back of it, it has nothing to do with me, it has everything to do with you. Because you all have put me on a pedestal that I would have never thought to be standing on.”
