Mark Murphy honored at half time on Monday night

GREEN BAY, Wis. (WBAY) – During halftime of Monday night’s game, the team paid tribute to Packers President and CEO Mark Murphy.

This is Murphy’s final season as head of the organization as he reaches the mandatory retirement age of 70 in July.

Another Packers legend, Larry McCarren, officiated the halftime ceremony and told fans that the Packers legacy has only grown greater under Mark Murphy’s 17 seasons at the helm.

Murphy was surrounded by family at the 50 yard line as he was honored in front of thousands of Packers fans. He received praise from commissioner Roger Goodell and other NFL executives in a video honoring his NFL legacy. Murphy took the time to thank all Packers employees for their work from the field to the concession stands. He also expressed his gratitude to all Packers fans.

“Every NFL team says our fans are the best. We’re the only ones where that’s true, and you’re also the best owners in the NFL,” Mark Murphy said.

A month after Murphy’s retirement, he will be inducted into the Packers Hall of Fame as the only member of their 2025 class.
